Nach einer Folge von eher mittelmäßigen Alben ist <i>Hard Again</i> ein aufsehenerregendes Comeback und ein Beweis für des Meisters musikalische Fähigkeiten.<sup id="cite_ref-amg_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-amg-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Der Einschluss von Studiogesprächen und Aufforderungen an Musiker gibt dem Album einen Hauch von Intimität.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Dieses und die beiden nachfolgenden Alben gehörten zu den kommerziell erfolgreichsten des Künstlers.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
