      and "technically" , on that album , Robin may have sang {however serendipicially } 'better' on "The Flame", and he did so over the years on quite a few cheezy songs that went nowhere for them. But this was their most "polished" album ever production and engineering- wise . . . . . . and Zanders sounded twice as natural as the King himself from start to end. It's one thing to out-copy a legend . . . .but it is quite another to out-character them. But he did here.

    I don't usually listen to this band, but... what a great cover, and for me, this version is just as good as the original. I liked it from the first time I heard a little bit on the radio
