One of the band's best albums, The Great Radio Controversy retains the typical big-sounding production and anthemic hooks of '80s pop-metal, but Tesla adds a grittier, bluesier edge to their music than most of their peers. As on most of their records, Tesla's songwriting is consistently good but never quite great; however, "Love Song," "The Way It Is," and "Heaven's Trail (No Way Out)" are among their best, with melodies and riffs that aren't predictable, cookie-cutter product. The Great Radio Controversy broadens the sound of Mechanical Resonance somewhat with increased use of acoustic instruments, which provides more textural and dynamic contrasts, and the weaker moments are still enlivened by the twin-guitar attack of Frank Hannon and Tommy Skeoch. All in all, a fine effort.

I would love to hear Neko Case cover Tesla's "Love Song". For many, this tune goes in the "I won't give it a chance" bin because it was written/played by a "Hairband". But don't fool yourself, it is a great tune!And for those who are not familiar with Neko Case, check out my Neko playlist of the album "Fox Confessor Brings The Flood"...what a mesmerizing voice.
