The Top Ten
Love Hunter

Mean Business

This is one of their fastest songs, and it's also heavier. In 1979, its tempo was close to that of metal songs from the same year.
Outlaw

Pretty good lead vocals by their guitarist, Bernie Marsden.
I also noticed similarities in the lyrics of this song (1979) and Guns N' Roses' "Paradise City." Not saying it's a ripoff. I was just surprised when I noticed it. The lyrics have the same rhyming of "city" and "pretty":
"I was looking for the bright lights of the big city,
A red hot town where the girls are pretty."
Guns N' Roses' lyrics to "Paradise City," 1987:
"Take me down
To the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty."
