The Element - Time (CD)

1985 "Time" was released in France. It's a cool AOR record by THE ELEMENT. Guitarrist Patrick Rondat later moved on to successful stints with CONSORTIUM PROJECT and ELEGY foremost. The eight songs and especially the title track are typical, pretty poppy eighties AOR. The melodic "Wild Child (Part 1 & 2)" is a real bummer, too. No compromises here whatsoever in terms of songwriting or production, as well as, when it comes to artwork or lyrics. "Time" is nothing but pure 1985. An album like a pleasant travel in time. First time on CD! (MS)
