Used (cover/disc): EX+/EX+
The fifth full-length studio album by legendary British Rock singer.
Tyler had changed musical direction from Country music in 1981, and soon after began working with Jim Steinman, who produced the album and wrote its most successful single "Total Eclipse of the Heart".
The album consists of dramatically re-worked cover songs, including the Creedence Clearwater Revival hit "Have You Ever Seen the Rain?". "Goin' Through the Motions" is a cover of the song by Blue Öyster Cult from their 1977 album "Spectres", while "Straight from the Heart" was the break-out Top 10 hit for Canadian Rock singer/songwriter Bryan Adams from his Platinum album "Cuts Like A Knife". The album also includes the song "Take Me Back", written by Billy Cross, a former Bob Dylan guitarist. Only two of the tracks were written by Steinman himself: the title track and the international No. 1 hit "Total Eclipse of the Heart".
"Faster Than The Speed Of Night" reached No. 1 in the UK Albums Chart, and was certified Silver in the UK, Platinum in the US, and Double Platinum in Canada.
