Rocktopia: Survivor - 'When Seconds Count' (re-issue) - CD Review

A Rocktopia / Fireworks Magazine album review by Dave Cockett: A band born in the bitterly harsh Illinois winter of 1977/78, Survivor would go on to become one of the most successful - to many of their fans, genre defining – bands that the then vibrant US AOR scene ever produced. From what were relatively inauspicious beginnings (although to be fair, with a songwriter as consistently strong as former The Ides Of March man Jim Peterik they were always going to command attention), Survivor found themselves catapulted into the harsh glare of the international spotlight when the title track from third album 'Eye Of The Tiger' was chosen as the main theme for the Sly Stallone box office smash 'Rocky III'.
