Review

With the dawn of a new decade, Shitar releases a benchmark album.  The material here is far superior to their previous efforts.  Long Way Home is packed with catchy pop-rock melodies, ballads and rockers.  From the opening strains of the intro solo to Don't Need Your Love, to the final chorus of Coming Home, the album is the epitome of Shitar at their best.  In addition to the two aforementioned songs, The Baby Song, Forgive Me, My Dog Mac and Always There for Me went on to become concert staples and fan favorites. A classic.
