Symphony?.
That this album is not owned by everyone in the country is a crime of such great magnitude that it should carry a sentence of lifelong imprisonment. Sadly, to my knowledge, no-one has ever been charged.
If you ever play this album next to their 1999 release ?Giving the Game Away?, a couple of things become immediately apparent. The first is that, in their ten year career, Thunder matured greatly, both as musicians and writers. The second is that, back in 1990, they were clearly in it for the kicks. All they wanted was to have fun. And it shows. Oh, does it ever?
Reading the sleeve of this album only strengthens that belief. The cover has ?Arry hamming it up as a conductor, complete with white gloves and baton, with an alley as his concert hall, and his orchestra consisting of a drunk, and a lady of the night! The list ...
tone to the album.
'Backstreet Symphony' is definately a great track, really keeps the high standard of work on the album going.
The most successful of the album was 'Love Walked In' although not my favourite, I could see its appeal to the public and it is a good song in all fairness.
This is a really awesome album, one that I didn't discover until recently. If you're into AC/DC toned down a bit more, you have Thunder. Definately a recommended album. ...
Advantages: Brilliant and British Disadvantages: None
Thunder were undoubtedly one of the best British Rock bands on the scene during the early nineties, and this first offering from the Thunder camp is excellent.
The whole album is brilliant - from the wonderful ballad type tracks like "Love Walked in" and "Don't wait for me" to Gimme Some Lovin and Dirty Love.
An Englishman on Holiday is brilliant too - a very true song of what Brits are like on holiday - drinking , fighting and falling over! Very funny.
Thunder were brilliant, and just as good live as they were on vinyl (old style records to you younger peeps!)
Danny Bowers has a powerful voice that can easily do justice to ballads or rock-your-socks-off tracks, and the guitar work of Luke Morely, whilst not the best in the world, is certainly deservy of credit.
A brilliant band, an excellent album and the best live ...
