Track Info
Hey Ho Wish You Well
"Hey Ho Wish You Well" starts the album with a guitar intro and an uptempo start, the track revisits the jig-rock style of Slade's 1984 hit Run Runaway. The track was mimed by the band on Saturday Superstore shortly before the album's release. Radio DJ Mike Read mimed with guitar too. Apparently, people tried to buy the track after it was played although it was never issued as a single. The track is also a recommended track by allmusic.
Little Sheila
Main article: Little Sheila
"Little Sheila", a synth-based track shares the distinction of not sounding very Slade-like with the single Myzsterious Mizster Jones. The track inspired by a Van Halen sound, the track was released as a single in the United States, Canada and Germany only, entering the US billboard at #86.
Harmony
"Harmony" is a mid-tempo track using big vocal harmonies and unusual for Slade, astringent lyrics containing the kinds of things a disappointed lover might say to an errant partner.
Myzsterious Mizster Jones
Main article: Myzsterious Mizster Jones
"Myzsterious Mizster Jones", similar to Little Sheila with its synth-based sound became a single after the commercial failure of 7 Year Bitch, it was released in early 1985 and peaked at #50. The lyrics refer to a fictional character. In an interview with Ken Sharpe, bassist Jim Lea admitted that although he liked the track, it was never going to be a hit. The track is also a recommended track by allmusic.
Walking On Water, Running On Alcohol
"Walking On Water, Running On Alcohol" features a personal set of lyrics by lyricist and vocalist Noddy Holder. Holder had originally wanted the track to be released as a single. The record company and other band members disagreed. Holder commented in an interview from 1986, "If I had the choice, 'Walking on water' would have been released as a single between 'Myzster Jones' and 'Miracles', but I was the only one who thought so. RCA and the other band members weren't keen, so obviously it didn't get released. Everybody I spoke to on the streets loved that bloody song, and felt that it should have been the single."[9]
7 Year Bitch
Main article: 7 Year Bitch (song)
"7 Year Bitch" is a intricately constructed and acutely observed song about older men taking on younger mistresses. The song however was banned from broadcast due to the title and lyrics. The single peaked at #60.
I'll Be There
"I'll Be There" is an upbeat, anthemic song. Chris Ingham of Rock Backpages stated "the track is a anthemic song of unconditional support to the style of a Celtic rock sound, the track shows a closer inspection of a tale of hopeless devotion to a partner, an equivocal sentiment which probably counted against the otherwise worthy song being considered as a single."
I Win, You Lose
"I Win, You Lose" is an intricately arranged medium-tempo rocker, following the sound of Walking On Water, and features a personal and bitter lyric.
Time To Rock
"Time To Rock" is a monolithic marching home anthem with Don Powell's kick drum bolstered by the sound of stamping feet, his snare drum by handclaps. It is also the only Slade track in their history to feature whistling.
All Join Hands
Main article: All Join Hands (Slade song)
"All Join Hands" was Slade's last single in 1984. Another anthem with a nostalgic feel, it heralded Slade's effective retirement from stage work. The track peaked at #15, the last UK top 20 hit for Slade.

Доп. информация: Альбом вышел 29 марта 1985 года и занял 60 место в чартах UK. Отличие американской версии, в треке Lock Up Your Daughters, первоначальная версия которого выходила на альбоме 81 года Till Deaf Do Us Part. Из американской версии, была удалена песня All Join Hands, которая (кстати) была последним крупным успехом Slade в Англии - 15 место. Информацию о синглах (песнях) смотрите под спойлером))))
Что тут говорить)) шикарный альбом!!!!
