... Seen as it's the eleventh of his career and all, how about simply titling it '11'? Ingenious. '11' fittingly contains eleven tracks, plus one as a bonus.

...aptly titled the '11 Dates, 11 Cities' tour, starting in Lisbon and ending in Copenhagen throughout the month of March 2008.
I can't say that Bryan Adams has ever been one of my favourite artists, but I certainly have a strong love of his 'Summer of 69', many a time I have cranked up the volume and blasted out his raucous rock ballad. Sadly there is no 'Summer of 69' here, but what we are treated to is 47 minutes of Bryan Adams as he charms his ... ...mid-tempo rock music is perfect for long journeys on the road, it's always good to pump up the volume for Bryan Adams and unlock that air guitar of yours.

Album Notes: '11' is the appropriately named eleventh studio album from 'the groover from Vancouver', Bryan Adams. A selection of pop-rock classics-in-the-making and swoonsome ballads, this album has everything you'd expect from a Bryan Adams record and more. Includes the single 'I Thought I'd Seen Everything'.
