Russ Ballard won't knock you out of your socks, but he is a surprisingly strong guitarist and his songs maintain a high level of generic quality on both sides of this slab: a decent disc that goes everywhere but nowhere. Ballard had three previous albums for Epic: 1974's 'Russ Ballard.' which he produced, 1975's 'Winning,' produced by Muff Winwood and I977's 'At The Third. Ballard himself blatantly rips the opening chords of 'Who's Crying Now' for 'The Last Time.' He almost creates the Outfield on 'Day to Day,' but Ballard doesn't have the pipes. 'Voices' deservedly garnered dial time and Ace Frehley, who hit big with Ballard's 'New York Groove,' returned to plunder the slattern 'In the Night' for Frehley's Comet.
