After a full decade off,
Loverboy reunited in 1997 for
VI. Like many of their peers,
Loverboy wasn't able to secure a contract with a major label and decided to attach themselves to CMC International, an imprint specializing in veteran rockers. While the group certainly doesn't reach the heights of
Get Lucky, they don't embarrass themselves. There certainly are some mediocre cuts scattered throughout the record, but the best moments make the record worthwhile for longtime
Loverboy fans.
