Fine sophmore disc. by Michael F. Medina  4 Stars
September 03, 2009
From the beginning, Hurricane was fighting the tag of Quiet Riot junior since Robert Sarzo (guitar), Tony Cavazo (bass) are the younger brothers of Quiet Riot's Carlos Cavazo and Rudy Sarzo. This might have been what pushed the band to seek out a different sound that many have noted creeps toward Duran Duran at times.
Far from a perfect disc, Over the edge delights in the way that many 80's metal albums did, a few excellent songs mixed in with concert filler. Over the Edge provide many more highlights than most did; Commercially penned "Over the Edge" and "I'm on to you". A moody rendition of Alice Coopers "Eighteen" team up with Duran Duran'ish "Give me an inch" and the quirky "Baby Snakes". rounding off with more than solid "Messin with a Hurricane" and "Spark in my Heart". To form a play list that is surprisingly solid with few holes.
Hurricane had quite a different sound on this disc. Usually moody and mid tempo, once you get into the groove of this disc it never leaves you. Some disregard it at first listening, but that is their loss. Give this some time and it will be a keeper for the long run.

80's classic by Mr. D. P. Smith (Coventry, UK)  5 Stars
May 21, 2009
I got into Hurricane very late, 20 whole years after this was released in fact. It was on a free compilation dvd i got with another cd i'd ordered, on this dvd is over an hour of pure 80's rock magic and one of the best videos is Hurricanes I'm Onto You. As soon as I heard the opening few seconds I was hooked and made a real effort to find the album it came from. I'm happy to say I managed to download the remastered version in highest quality for a mere £7.99 which I burned onto a cd immediately.
I find Hurricane to be one of the best of the overlooked 80's bands because judging from this 1st full album they should have been huge with songs like the title track, Over The Edge and I'm Onto You. Also their cover version of Alice Coopers I'm Eighteen which they slowed down slightly giving it their own unique take is really very good.
All of the songs here are well written and well played with all the band showing off their skills without showboating and trying to steal any limelight for themselves instead creating a tight sound and complimenting each other. Kelly Hansen has a wonderful voice, powerful and melodic, Robert Sarzo is a very skilled guitarist and the other 2 guys provide a fantastic rhythm section.
I also feel that they have made a rather strange choice of tribute for a rock band, the song Give Me An Inch to me sounds like a hard rock tribute to Duran Duran given the way Kelly sings it and the whole sound of the song, the even stranger thing is that it fits perfectly with the rest of the album and feels totally natural.
I will close now by saying if you don't have this album and you like great 80's hard rock then you should definately buy this as I can't rave about or recommend it enough, don't miss out you might regret it!!

lame. by R. Watson (Katy/Houston,Texas)  1 Stars
October 02, 2008
A fine example here that just because somethings"hard to find" or "rare" or "out of print" doesnt necessarily mean its any good.This music is lame.Sure,the singer can sing but hes singin a tired old song here,people.The best part about this cd is the bass guitar. Its great! The first song & "Im onto you" are decent(yet repetitive; in an annoying way) & the rest are just stinky cheese turds disguised as songs. I cant believe i sold this cd for $30+! Thats the most amazing thing about it!

Great Album that was Overshadowed by the Mainstream Bands! by Shawn Bernet (Highland, IL) 4 Stars
June 25, 2008
This is a great album! "Over the Edge" and "I'm Onto You" are great 80's anthems! The only question I have is why Kelly Hansen went from singing these songs to "Hot Blooded" and "Cold as Ice" in Foreigner. He should call up Robert Sarzo and get Hurricane back together again and play Rocklahoma!

Sounds even better now! by J. Mcneil (Waterbury, CT.) 4 Stars
June 02, 2008
Kelly Hansen's vocals on "Over the Edge" blow anyones away! This is one powerful album with a cover of A. Coopers "Eighteen" and the original "I'm on to you" plus more 80's metal to love. Only disappointment is the last song with the phone conversation over some great music. Poor choice for a song but still worth it for the rest.
