''Hang On for Your Life'' is the second album by the group Shooting Star. The song ''Flesh And Blood'' featured a violin solo, an unusual sound in an up-tempo rock song. American AOR radio stations embraced the record; the songs ''Hang On for Your Life'', ''Hollywood'', ''Breakout'', and ''Are You on My Side'' along with ''Flesh and Blood'', all received airplay. This was the last Shooting Star album to feature the original lineup, as founding keyboardist Bill Guffey departed the band following its release.
