Road Island (1982)

Ambrosia's swan song is very much in the same style as the previous two albums. There are upbeat songs, love songs, and a very poignant closing song; they must have known that this would be their last album when they wrote the lyric, "Endings are places where all things begin."

There's not much I can say about this album. It's good, it's solid Ambrosia, it's worth having if you like any of their other work. I personally don't like it quite as much as the previous album, One Eighty.

I believe the song "How Can You Love Me" received some radio play, but I have no data on how far up the charts it ever made it.
