There must be something wrong with your ears or your copy of BFG because the drums sound great on BFG with in fact a lot more dynamics at play than on the original Bat out of Hell.

That's your opinion. AFL comes MUCH closer to Steinman perfection in my opinion.

That is pretty much just as ridiculous as saying the drums are an easy instrument to play. The Album is filled to the brim with Steinman-esque production qualities with regards to instrumentation, arrangements, pounding pianos, vast background vocals and dynamics. For it's time it's a fantastic sounding album in my opinion.

I wouldn't call that unsure, it is much more striving for the perfection which you say isn't on the album. Yet in that case I think the decision for striving for vocal perfection is insanity when using an artist who is not even credited on the cover of the album. If I buy a Meat Loaf album, I don't expect Jim Steinman vocals and when I buy a Jim Steinman album I don't expect Rory Dodd vocals.
