Title: Not Their Best By A Long Shot
Product review: Maybe I'm getting old, but neither Bozzio nor Stevens live up to their promise in this album, a self-indulgent pastiche of garage band riffs with solos.Steve Stevens blew me away on Billy Idol's Rebel Yell. The solo on Blue Highway, which I understand he recorded in one take, is a flawless classic; and his playing on Flesh For Fantasy is some of the finest, tastiest stuff I have ever heard. Neither he nor Idol ahve ever recaptured that genius.As for Bozzio, listen to Jeff Beck's Guitar Shop. On the slow numbers especially, he takes drumming to a whole new plane.I hope these musicians find their greatness. This album doesn't.
