Reflector is the sixth studio album by the California soft rock group Pablo Cruise. The album charted slightly higher than its immediate predecessor, reaching No. 34 in the US. Two singles were released from the album — "Cool Love" and "Slip Away", reaching No. 13 and No. 75, respectively, in the US. Produced by established and well-known R&B producer Tom Dowd, fans remarked that the album had a different feel to it.[ allmusic ((( Pablo Cruise > Discography > Main Albums )))]
Two changes in members were made before the album was released. After just two albums, bassist and vocalist Bruce Day was replaced by John Pierce while additional guitarist Angelo Rossi was added. Furthermore, keyboardist Cory Lerios sang lead vocals on "This Time" and "Inside/Outside", something he had not done on previous albums.
