Alex Harvey Band - Pflicht /Qualität/Fehl/Verlegenheitskauf

Anfang März erscheint endlich das "Unveröffentlichte" Album " HOT CITY "der SAHB aus dem Jahre 1974 ! Bisher hatte ich nur einige Songs auf div Bootlegs.

Zitat :
In early 1974, SAHB went into the studios with US producer Shel Talmy to record sessions for their third album. Upon completion, the band decided they were not happy with the overall sound and amazingly decided to scrap the entire album. A fully mixed album by one of the biggest upcoming rock bands was left with Shel Talmy who departed back to Los Angeles not long after. Most of the songs were completely reworked with different arrangementa and lyrics and appeared at the end of 1974 on the album 'The Impossible Dream'. Now after 34 years, MLP have unearthed this treasure and the album has been re-assessed by both Shel Talmy & the band. The tracks have been ompletely remastered and fully approved by the band members. Now the fans can hear how songs like Vambo, Anthem and Man In Jar originally sounded. This CD comes in a deluxe package with a 20-page booklet of rare photos and track by track comments by the band.

wie würdest du denn die Hot City und die US-Tour musikalisch bewerten?

als Fan bin ich da natürlich voreingenommen ! Die Live CD ist absolut Klasse denn das damalige Live Album war nicht Komplett und die Reihenfolge der Songs stimmte auch nicht !
