Having sung lead on such Alan Parsons Project standouts as “I Wouldn’t Wanna Be Like You,” Lenny Zakatek apparently feels ready for a solo career.

His approach here isn’t nearly as pungent as it is polished; and the LP’s mainstream rock, which comes predominantly from other writers, proves almost uniformly cliched and colorless.
