Album Review

Bryan Adams capitalized on the momentum of "Cuts Like a Knife" with 1984's "Reckless", a virtually flawless collection of melodic hard rock which would dominate radio for years to come. "Run To You" was a brilliant lead-off single which remains one of Adams' best songs ever, but its success still pales in comparison to follow-up smashes such as "Summer Of '69," "It'S Only Love," (a duet with Tina Turner), and the ballad to end all ballads, "Heaven." Although some songs haven't aged very well (especially the overtly cheesy "Kids Wanna Rock"), these weak links are easily eclipsed by further highlights such as the cool rock of "One Night Love Affair" and the irrepressible pop chorus of "Somebody." Sales figures may point to 1991's "Waking Up the Neighbors" as the peak of Bryan Adams career, but the songs from "Reckless" will most certainly prove to be his lasting legacy. ~ Ed Rivadavia, All Music Guide
