Great review...I had no idea those 3 songs were connected like that but now that I know it makes total sense. I had never heard Footsteps before you posted it there, either.

I'm a pretty big PJ fan, and I like most of their albums but Ten remains my personal favorite. It's the most hard hitting and there is just so much energy in the songs. I love the story of how the band came together, too. It just seems like fate (for those interested, check out Cameron Crowe's PJ20...it's a great documentary chronicling all of this). I love how the music is so serious and talent-filled, but they originally wanted to call themselves Mookie Blaylock (and still paid tribute to him with the album's name). It shows they still have a sense of humor.
