Lake II continues in the same mode as the first eponomyous album and Paradise Island, their third. The nice thing about all three albums is that, although they have a distinctive sound thanks to the vocals of late singer James Hopkins-Harrison, their albums don't sound the same. Every song stands on its own. I wouldn't recommend anything after Paradise Island, though. These first three are definitive Lake, that's the reason that 14 of the 17 tracks from their greatest hits CD are from these three albums.

These guys were just under appreciated!!!!!! What a shame. So much good music that was never heard.

THIS ALBUM IS AWESOME! As a child of the 80's and 90's, this album had awesome musical emotion! Harmonies that SMOKE Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young!
Well written and performance beyond anything I've heard in a while, this band is a refreshing, nostalgic musical journey that is hastily embraced by the soul!

a buddy of mine just made a tape of lakes best for me because he knew i liked this style of music but i've never heard of them. wow! am i surprised this is the way music should be played. great harmonies and vocals along with excellent musicianship.if you like toto, kansas shooting star and pablo cruise this is a combo of all of them at its best especially scooby doobies and see them glow . great songs. for any fan of that late 70's early 80's classic rock this is a must along with their 1st album.GET IT!

This German-American band is one of those "should have made it" bands. This is their 2nd out of four American releases and I think their best. Superb harmonies, flawless musicianship and a whole load of melody. Having a current album and cd collection that numbers over a thousand, I can without hesitation say that it's in my top 5. Five band members take part in their awesome harmonies. Sure it's got that late 70s sound but so many of the songs are timeless. "Love's The Jailor" is a painful ballad about the confusion and turmoil about being at a place in a relationship and in life that's not quite what was expected. I've yet to figure out who "See Them Glow" is about..but the story about a famous singer and his lover is a song not to be missed!
