Description/Album Notes:

A consistently good album. One likeable song after the other. Rock anthems, ballads, progressive rock, heavy metal, even a bit of waltz. It offers a variety of sounds and demonstrates the musical abilities of Triumph very early on. Classic 80s, and a soundtrack to the teen-years of many, this album includes the Lay it on the Line, Just a Game, and the Top 40 hit Hold On.

Review: This album is known by most as the record that introduced Triumph to the rest of the world, and they couldn't have started off on a better note!Just A Gameis a nice little album, easy to sit down and enjoy, which makes it a great factor to appealing to many people. The album also have a nice balance of some good rock and roll ("Lay It On The Line," "Hold On," "American Girls"), some amazing blues-rock that does a good job of showcasing Rik's guitar playing talents ("Suitcase Blues," "Young Enough To Cry") and some more prog rock tracks ("Just A Game").

A solid album that sure promised more good things to come from Triumph!

Review: This was the first Triumph album I bought. I was about 14 years old at the time and the album had just been released.From the moment I placed the album on the turntable with the great opener "Movin'' On" through to "Suitcase Blues," the album is a real killer! The two tracks that really stand out on this album in my opinion are the title track "Just A Game" and "Hold On".
