Blissful feelings arise at the mere mention of '70s arena rock. It gives listeners the permission to have fun, sing along to aircraft-hanger-size choruses, play sir guitar solos, forget about any troubles, recall the experience of a first kiss and quite simply, rock out.

Few albums better instill these pleasures than Foreigner's 1977 self-titled debut album, a five-times platinum-selling blockbuster chock full of salacious riffs, soaring vocals, edgy beats, and lyrics that practically demand to be shouted. And while the record has always boasted clean, immediate production, never before has it exploded with the dynamic intensity and rich transparency now made possible on Mobile Fidelity's dynamic 180-gram LP. This is what rock 'n' roll dreams are made of.
