The second album with Survivor, Premonition was released in 1981 and what else can I say than the word: WORLDCLASS. Survivor was without any doubts one of the best and most important AOR bands between 1980 and 1986. Premonition sits on eight tracks and six of them are more or less superb. The "Journey-esque" "Light Of A Thousand Smiles" is absolutely fantastic, "Poor Man's Son" is a classic so is "Summer Nights" and "Hearts A Lonely Hunter". Why not 5 stars? Well - there are two tracks that aren't five stars tunes - "Take you on a saturday" and "Love Is On My Side" which both are quite boring. But what should I say - AOR that was produced around 1980 is the golden era for the genre and this album is another proof for that.
