5.0 out of 5 stars
Bryan Adams' first classic, 6 Sep 2000
By A Customer
Everything about this album grabs you from the word go - the production is aggressive, the playing is unbelievably tight, the mix is perfect and the songs, with a couple of exceptions, are first class. Even the weaker songs, such as "I'm ready" and "What's it gonna be?" are acceptable.
The highlights here are "The only one", "Take me back", the title track, "Don't leave me lonely" and the first of BA's famous ballads, "Straight from the heart". The closing "The best was yet to come" is also a fine ballad, if a little sugary, and you'll end up wishing the album was longer than the rather miserly 35+ minutes - mind you, that was pretty much standard in the early '80s.
Anyone who likes Bryan Adams should not miss this album.

...But It Feels So Right, 24 May 2004
The first thing I remember about this album was the title track being played at Live Aid , and BA getting the crowd to sing with him . There are nine cracking tracks on the album . Highlights must be the feelgood 'This Time' , the anthemic title track , and the balladry of 'The Best Was Yet To Come' . Go Geddit !!

OMG!!!, 7 Feb 2006
seriously people, if you're a BAD fan, this is the one to have...'straight from the heart' is easily the classic of classics from Bryan Adams. Compiled with several other hard rocking tunes, that can only belong to the one and only, Bryan Adams does well for this album at the end of the 80's era.
