    About Heart, Jim C. wrote:
    Been listening to their catalog -> they could have done even better. The production quality of Magazine, Dog and Butterfly, and Bebe Le Strange really stand out as subpar. I know Mike Flicker did all their 70s albums and they had a limited budget, but he wasn't no Jack Douglas or Ted Templeman.

    I don't mind their sellout 80s material.
