| Superb one off release, reminding me of the great Boulevard and also Go West in places. Matthew Gerard is also connected to Von Groove and Greg Critchley to Kim Mitchel on his 'Aural Fixations' release. Lovers of great Canadian AOR won't go wrong with this one, especially with the first half of the disc. Highly recommended

| LEVEL 42? What the f**k? This doesn't sound anything like Level 42. The lead singer is a total Eddie Money clone. Not a bad CD, definitely good in the first half, with 'Wherever You Run' and 'This is Love' leading the way.

| Their music is punchy and is predominantly bright all the way through. It's aimed squarely at the pop/middle of the road audience, no surprises, and a pleasant workout all round. It has a British feel to it, a la Level 42 and Go West, no doubt due to the rhythm section of Gerrard and Critchley. The songs are a hybrid of pure pop oriented affairs with brass keyboard stabs, of which there are some harder rockin' numbers.

| I like this album, and like Koogles said, it's not like Lever 42.It's something between Go west and Joe Pasqualle.First falf is great, especially first two tracks.Tracks in the middle of this disc are mediocre, but later 8 and 9 are my fav. ones too.

| The lead singer is Chris Smith & he released a solo album a few years back (mid-nineties) called 'Room inside my heart' which is a kinda cross between Zappacosta & Marc Jordan.

| I was very excited when I heard the first track - killer melodic rock, but after that it it not so spectacular. Not a bad CD by any means but the start promised a lot more than the rest delivered.

Good AOR/Melodic Rock album, como siempre hasta ahora los musicos Canadienses no defraudan siempre entregando buenas obras y Regatta es otro buen exponente de esas tierras llenas de Magia, que seria la vida de los buenos Rockeros sin un pais como Canada, en cortes  This Is Love(Killer song, my fav), I Will Be There, Wherever You Run, Matter of Time los cortes que particularmente mas me gustan, el resto tambien se encuentran en buen camino, otro disco recomendado para amantes del AOR

| What an opening duo we have here. Two AOR MONSTER tunes sounding not far from Boulevard (as Jez mentions). The rest has much more of a pop flavour to it, & it's a very inconsistent CD, but there are further highlights towards the end. However, this really is worth picking up for lovers of pure 80's AOR for those first 2 awesome tunes. I will probably never play the entire CD from start to finish, but who cares with 2 tunes as good as this. 7/10 (overall).

| Great AOR album. The style of this band is like a mix of Eddie Money, BLVD, Bryan Adams and Rick Springfield. In general terms, it is a very good album and my favorite track is "Wherever You Run". Very Recommended

Hey! deletted my old comments here  well, "Wherever You Run" and "This is Love" are awesome AOR songs! i love these tracks and are my favorite songs of course. Eddie money clone? hahahaa.. Smith`s voice reminds me a lot of Eddie Money. There are some fillers and could be inconsistent but it`s a quite good popAOR album.

| I wasn't expecting much from this one but it's surprisingly good. The singer sounds a little like Bryan Adams which is definitely a plus point and the instruments are played flawlessly. I'd have to say my favourite is Devils in Disguise but This is Love, Give Me a Sign and I Will Be There are my other highlights. I agree with the above comments that some of the songs (especially Heartbreaker) remind me of 80s pop like Boy Meets Girl (certainly not a bad thing for me). A pity only one album was realeased.
