| I've been looking for this CD for many years!NOW i've finally found it and i'm not deceived!GREAT ALBUM!The opening tittle "Pretty things" is the perfect mix between a glam/pop melody and a pumping Rock n'Roll groove.The same goes for all the tunes!"Happiness" is the kind of song that make me feel GOOD; "L.A." is a gem too.In my top 20 HAIR BAND list!

| Crotch-level glam out of Canada never quite carves out a distinct identity beyond that of "Warrant's second cousin". Still, tracks like "Baby Doll" and "Dollar in My Pocket" are as good as anything that came out of L.A. The rest of the CD is pretty disposable.

| I'm sorry everyone, this CD is BAD. A few OK songs at best, the rest are below average. This is no way a Glam band, more like a AOR, soft rock type band. I did give this a few listens and couldn't get myself to like much about this music. I'm selling the copy I just bought on ebay now. I'd give this a 2/10 for 2 ok songs.

| Like many others bands from Canada, Big House know the secret of true party rocking glam style music. They sound great, the songs are cool. "Dollar in my pocket", "All nite", "Refuse To Run" are glam at its best!!! The other songs are too at high level. Don't miss this CD!!! I rate them 8/10.

| Ok a good thing about it: Can't cry anymore is a pretty good song A bad thing about it: Can't cry anymore is about the only pretty good song. As a whole I'm a little let down by this one, most of the songs don't stick, the lyrics are awefully cheesy, the guitars are hardly exciting and the vocals would have been good if he tried not so hard to get a twitch in his singing with every song. All in all 6/10.

| Although being far from spectacular, I do find this to be pretty good and consistant hard rock CD. 'Dollar in my pocket' and 'Baby doll' are obvioulsy the gems of the album, but 'LA' is by far the pick for me. Those three are brilliant and the rest, though not being spectacular, I feel they are all good songs. Nothing too bad amongst them at all. Great CD overall.

Dollar In My Pocket is a good tune. Other than that, err... hmmm. Don't pay a lot for this... But if you are like me and will buy any CD just to get a good song you don't have, then by all means, buy it  2/10

| Well Kip, we may not agree about Axel Rudi Pell's playing ability, but we sure as hell agree on this! I was really hyped to get this when I heard "Dollar" and after hearing the rest of it...well...I wanted my damn dollar back... IMHO mostly filler with a couple of inspired moments, mostly at the beginning of the disc.

| I'm in the same boat as you guys who only were able to get into "Dollar" and that was about it. Gave it several chances and finally gave up and threw "Dollar" on a mixed cd and got rid of the original. 4/10

| Let's be fair, it's a solid album, great feel good glam rock. I like it quite a bit, all of it too. Better than most now a days.

| Many bad comments.. I'm surprised! I have to say that I really like this album. Dollar in my Pocket, All Nite, L.A., Baby Doll are very good tracks, the rest is way better than most of the current hard rock stuff. Solid Glam/Hard Rock. Give it another chance guys!

| Big House......i pushed play and all i heard was this deafining bass line....sounds like a great hard rock disc to me which it is!! Dollar in my Pocket, Baby Doll, LA, All Nite and Refuse to Cry along w/ Can't Cry Anymore are just rockin tunes!! w/ only one disc under their belt, they sure knew how to rock, was the lead singer a punk skater?........hmm........

| While not one of the best released in 1991 it does have a few tracks worth hearing. You can usually get it for a decent price so take a chance. You may be surprised!

This release is a pleasant one,just that,far from a killer one or a must have IMHO...the best track for me is "LA" but there are some other goodies..."Refuse 2 Run" & "Angel On My Arm"(both with some The Cult feel to it),"All Nite","Can't Cry Anymore" & "Nothing Comes 4 Free"(  )...good vocalist,typical one for these kinds o' bands and nice glammy hooks...88/100
