Only after listening this one through few times I found out it's just a re-recorded version of their first album. That said, this one's one of the better if not the best re-recordings I've heard since ever. I wish Running Wild still made stuff this enjoyable and fun.

I'm convinced that they could do it, and as a proof there's been still a couple of these enjoyable and almost old RW sounding songs on the newer albums. As I see it it's Rolf's tendency to go for this more rock oriented songwriting that has been increased over the releases and the poor productions that have hindered the albums. I mean the dude is called Rock n Rolf, it's easy too see that his interest has shifted more to the slower, less metaller direction, thus leaving the old RW sound very much behind. I don't wanna say that that excuses the poor releases because RW could do something like Saxon or Thin Lizzy where rock meets metal if Rolf could succesfully pull that kind of songwriting off and still manage to retain some of the RW trademark sound.

Anyway, personally I still would rather listen to RW than BS because of the originality factor.
