This strong set has a hardy rhythm section and good range of soft-rock and pop ballads well suited for Cher's vocals. It also brought her out of an outdated style into modern music using the production skills of Olivia Newton-John's producer, John Farrar. The girl-group-styled Rudy and piano ballad When the love is gone stand out.
