    While the Persuaders second LP doesn't contain any thing as cold-blooded as "Thin Line Between Love And Hate," or the magnitude of the syncopated "Loves Gonna Pack Up," it's a more even affair than their debut. "Peace In The Valley Of Love" gets under your skin, you appreciate it, the more you hear the soothing, floater. "Bad, Bold And Beautiful Girl," is the complete opposite, it's boisterous, with a noisy sounding track, and some of the hokiest bass singing since the 50's. The dreamy "What Is The Definition Of Love," understated beauty is a quiet storm, Smokey Douglas, shows he can handle the subtle leads, as well as the in your face sagas. "You Still Love Me (After All You've Been Through)" packs a New York wallop, the theatrical drama comes complete with a man to woman rap, and as-if-somebody-died backing vocals by the Persuaders. Smokey recites a laundry list of ordeals that he's put his woman through and sounds surprise when he sings You Still Love Me, You Still Love Me, After Al...l, You've Been Through. - Andrew Hamilton, All Music Guide Read more Less
