"so after exposing myself to this multiple times now, i cannot get enough of I'm O.K. and Lords of the Ring. thank you for bringing this cheesy 70s relic into my life, I am addicted now."





Seems you like AOR. Check Toto, Kansas, Journey, Foreigner, Asia, Boston, Pavlov's Dog, '79 onwards Rainbow and Uriah Heep's Abominog

"Pavlov's Dog"



You'll either love or hate the vocals



Also, Journey's first album may change a little bit of your hate

Toto and Foreigner are both great, but Foreinger has a way more consistent discography. Toto is hit or miss, but their hits are fire.

Don't know man, I'd say 4 is awesome but also their only consistent album



Toto on the other hand has at least three albums which are pretty cool for me (debut, Hydra and IV)

Toto is awesome, Isolation and The Seventh One are solid albums as well

Boston is another great band (saw them mentioned up higher) - brilliant sound, never really deviated from it - but brilliant nonetheless.

Foreplay/Longtime is such an all time jam and most of their stuff is pretty awesome albeit homogenous. No problem with Boston.

Something about their sound is so violently cheesy and one-note that it irks me, these guys have a lot more moods/sounds even though they're obviously cheesy too imo

Boston's debut is probably the best AOR album ever made and by far



Though, imo, it's not really and AOR album. Kind of a poppier style of hard rock, but it doesn't sound at all like your typical AOR album

Sowing bro I just read an article that they have enough material for a double album.



Also, you got me kicking the dust off of some of these records.
