I was truly thrilled to see this come through in a BKP musical care package. After acquiring the compilation from 2012, I was ready for a new release. Boy, was I disappointed...
I'll be nice and call this an Eco-friendly/Green project. Translated that would mean recycled 70's rock riffs. Blues? Barely. What I heard sounded along the lines of Aerosmith, Grand Funk Railroad and maybe The Runaways/JJ & the BH (which would ramp it to the 80's). And not the best of said bands but the worst.
Yeesh, see what I mean? I've got enough generic rock like that from forty years ago...I certainly don't need any more. But the album wasn't a total loss, though. This will be the only track I'll keep...
Of course it's the likeness to Nazareth's Dan McCafferty that makes this work for the old Mad Rocker, certainly not the Everly's, Orbison or Emmylou versions.
Maybe Spain has missed out on having bad blues-rock music somehow. Well, this should help catch them up. Should any of my domestic readers be blown away by either of these songs you are in luck. This is now available to you via the digital market for $9.49.
You sure you don't have a Twisted Sister record to listen to instead?
