    Taker is doing pretty good these days. P.J. Bussey shows some improvement in his lead guitar playing. Given plenty of time and a producer to shape and guide the band...Taker's one of my picks for a band that could really put out a killer album.

    "Into The Throne Room" is a really nice instrumental with good guitar sound (Given a Chrysalis Records budget it would rank right up there with Michael Schenker/UFO type stuff). This segues into "A New Song", another trademark Taker song with melodic structure and passion.
