Mr Big - "Bump Ahead"

I ordered this album from BMG back in high school, 1993 to be exact. These guys had a couple of decent hits, "To Be With You" that was on their first album "Lean Into It", and a remake of the Cat Stevens song, "Wild World", that is included on this, their second album. It's an ok rock album, maybe something to play in the background, but certainly not something I would just sit and listen to. It's heavy on ballads, and most of them are pretty good. Considering the bassist Billy Sheehan, and the guitarist Paul Gilbert, were a couple of the best rock musicians of the time, I would expect something stronger. Listen to samples at Amazon.
