Keep It Up

Digitally remastered edition. Includes 16 page full-color booklet, 4,000 word essay with new interviews, enhanced artwork and previously unseen photos. By the time of this release, Loverboy was on a roll. Their previous two albums had scored massively in both their home country of Canada and, perhaps more importantly for sales, the USA. In fact, Get Lucky has sold more than seven million copies. Keep It Up continued the success with the hugely catchy single 'Hot Girls In Love' (which reached #11 on the Billboard singles chart), the upbeat 'Queen Of The Broken Hearts' and very heavy 'Strike Zone' cementing their sound. It was a record that would eventually sell four million copies. Produced once again by long-time collaborator Bruce Fairbairn, the album continued in the same vein as previous recordings, mixing a potent blend of hard rock, sophisticated production and contemporary sounds that were just right for the period. Consisting of a concise nine tracks, the album packs a real punch on all levels, giving the band a long-lasting legacy that has seen them ride out several changes in musical fashion due to the sheer quality of their songwriting and musical talent. Like Cheap Trick and Def Leppard, Loverboy's reputation has continued to grow as time edges ever onwards.
