American Tears


The third and final release of AMERICAN TEARS is without any doubts their best and most recommended release. First released in 1977 at the start of the Pomp Rock era from 1977-1982. Still an underrated classic. 'Powerhouse' contained some great Pomp Rock, including two songs that were later re-recorded by TOUCH on their only album.


The versions of AMERICAN TEARS of the classic Pomp Rockers "Last chance for love" and "Listen (can you feel it)" are as good as the TOUCH versions. The bonustrack "Born to love" is probably the least interesting song of this rather great album. My favourite songs of the album, beside the already mentioned TOUCH songs, are "Promise to be free" (classy piece of a Pomp Rock Ballad), "Don't give it away" and "Say you'll stay" which all saw the first steps into Pomp Rock.
