Description Fully Remastered Audio / Classic late 70s American melodic rock / Three Bonus Tracks / Contains 'Moonwalk', 'Treat Me Right' & 'Seventh Heaven' / 12 page full-colour booklet, 3,000 word essay with new interviews, enhanced artwork and unseen photos. Back in the day, long before MTV or the internet, new artists and records just sort of escaped into the record stores with little explanation or indeed fanfare. For us in Europe the situation was even more mystical. We would keep an eye on the import racks looking for new stateside releases that showed some kind of musical promise. Boston, Kansas, Starcastle and Journey all came to our attention via this random method of discovery and Bullseye were no exception to this. With roots in the Boston, Massachusetts scene but coming together in New York City, they quickly secured a record deal with the prestigious Columbia label, and set about recording their debut album, with producer Rob Stevens (who'd previously worked with prog rockers Crack The Sky), at the renowned Le Studio, Morin Heights, Quebec, and finished it in NYC at the Hit Factory. It was a match made in heaven, with the results displaying a musical maturity that defied the band s relatively fresh faced status. Housed in a striking cover that suggested something special indeed, those of us that ventured deeper were delighted to find a well-honed record, exploding with melodic hard rock firepower, and one that always kept songs at the forefront of the objective. Originally issued in 1979, tracks such as 'Moonwalk', 'Seventh Heaven' and 'I've Changed' lead the way but it's 'Treat Me Right' that will spark the most recognition as Pat Benatar went on to secure a hit single with it in 1980. Track Listing: Treat Me Right; Seventh Heaven; I've Changed (Never Want To See You Again); Moonwalk; In The Heat Of The Summer; My Old Car; Don't Let Him Know; What Can I Say; Don't Lose A Day; March On, Time - Bonus Tracks: It's Over; Ageless; Olivia.Amazon USA http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01GI8BFTW/?tag=imwan-20 Amazon UK http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01GI8BFTW/?tag=imwan-21
