I love the song "Sister Christian", as did millions of others in the day. It is a fantastic, defining power ballad that was Night Ranger's biggest hit. HOWEVER, Night Ranger has numerous other songs that are equally as good and better--including on this album!

"(You Can Still) Rock In America" is a fantastic, patriotic hard-rocker that leads off the album. If this song doesn't get you pumped up, then check your pulse; you may be dead. "Rumors In The Air" also absolutely rocks. After that famous aforementioned hit ballad, "Touch Of Madness" is a different-sounding track that is truly a great hard rocker--offsetting the previous track nicely. "Passion Play" and "When You Close Your Eyes" are both great anthems, the latter which was a top 20 hit. "Let Him Run" is a very underrated and nice ballad to close the album--more accoustic than the rest of the album, which is generally hard-rocking. Every track on this album, in my mind, is an absolute winner.

Every melodic hard rock fan should have this album in their collection. While Night Ranger has had several great albums, this album is clearly the defining moment for one of the most enjoyable bands of the past 20 years. Strongly recommended--from the first through last tracks.

Oh the eighties,and how we were lucky to have been a teenager.This album thanks to MTV pushed these talented muscians to the top.Classic fast paced album which seems to end quickly but never a dull track.You Can Still Rock In America,the lead track right through is non stop.These albums are hard to find in stores.Thank god for amazon!Jack Blades,Kelly Keagy and Brad Gillis gave it all.I was fortunate to have seen them perform live and WOW! Damn Yankees stuff is hard to find too. Crank this baby up and You Can Rock In America TOO

Night Ranger were the perfact blend of music. Jack blades was the rockin' front man. Kelly keagy was the balladeer. Brad Gills was the excellent lead guitarist. Night Ranger were a mix of Bryan Adams AOR rock, and Hair Metal. From "YOU CAN STILL (Rock in America)"

to the ever popular "Sister Christian" to "When you close your eyes (best song), People call Huey Lewis and the News "THE 80's band"

as good as they were, Night Ranger has gotten them beat.

Everyone who listened to rock or watched MTV in the 80s knows the hit balad Sister Christian from this CD. But there is much more to this CD than that one song. There are no fillers here - every song on it is good. This is one of those few CDs that you can leave on and play all the way through without getting bored.

Night Ranger won me over from the start with the albumn Dawn Patrol. Their balads are catchy, their up-tempo rockers are solid. Versatility is a sign of good musicianship. Tight vocals and great guitar work made them a frontrunner band in the 80's, with a little help from MTV.

This is one of the three best Night Ranger CD's, and definately one to have in your collection.

The two big hits are here: "Sister Christian," commonly mistaken as "Motorin'," which showcases guitarist Brad Gillis' technique, and "(You Can Still) Rock in America," the patriotic whirlwind that boasts Jeff Watson playing one of the most original guitar solos ever recorded. Most of the other songs are decent, but they derive a lot from the group's debut album: "When You Close Your Eyes," another big hit, is a rewrite of "Young Girl in Love"; "Chippin' Away" is a carbon copy of "At Night She Sleeps," and "Why Does Love Have to Change" is a pale substitute for the fiery fretwork of "Eddie's Comin' Out Tonight." All in all, the album succeeds because it sticks to the formula that made the first LP so popular, and thus, all Night Ranger fans need this CD, but most others may prefer the greatest hits collection.
