This is one of those bands that have a better moniker and titles than the actual music. The A) side is a mix of boogie rock and melodic AOR. The latter saving the effort. The B) side is much better with a mix of earnest hard rock and prog rock ambition. There's some faint mellotron as a backdrop. For whatever reason, I'm most reminded of Ethos here. Not a life changer, but worth tracking down.
Hard to tell where the group is from. Plenty of references to north central Illinois, Chicago, and St. Louis. They managed to finally get an album out in 1983, which looks to be an attempt at radio stardom. That which did not happen obviously.

Looks like we ended up with the exact same copy as the original poster once had on Discogs! Ours has the signatures in the same place. It's too exact to be a coincidence.
