Don't How I Coulda Missed these guys back in the 90s when They first came out - BUT I Did!
Wasn't Until Someone (Can't remember Who at the moment, BUT...THANKS!) sent this show in to HRC!
Ever been to a Concert Not Knowin' (Or Carin') Who The Opening Act Was...Used to happen a lot in the old days (When Dinosaurs roamed the Earth...) quite a lot...
You'd put down your money for some Big Name Band get your Ticket and Go To The Show, The Lights Went Down and a Band Came Out (If They Introduced at all, You'd Think "Never Heard-Of Them,") and Started Playin'...
Sometimes You'd Be Really Surprised 'Cause They Were a Damn Good Band!
NOTE: This Happened to me at Van Halen - Augusta, GA 1980 - Talas Opened!
Anyway, This Unknown Band Plays a Couple Tunes and They're Alright, But You and 24, 999 Other People are Just Passin' Time...Waitin' for The Big Show!
Then That Band Gets a Little Response from the Crowd ('Least Their Not Gettin' Booed!) and They Sorta Kick It Up a Notch, And You Really Take Notice...
Cry Of Love Is That Band And This IS That Show!
Seriously...They Play Their Asses Off Here!
By The Time They Hit Broken Toy (Which IS NOT on Their 1st CD - Brother) They're Kickin' It Into Overdrive!
Then Comes Drive It Home Where The WHOLE Band Shines!
Cry Of Love Are/Were From North Carolina, I Found Out, But Were Way More Hard Rock Than Southern Rock...You'll recognize the name Audley Freed (The Black Crowes)...
NOTE: Have YOU Started D/L This Yet?
Their Name Cry Of Love comes from a Jimi Hendrix Album, The First One Released After his death...
Anyway, Drive It Home is 15:00 of Pure Band Jam and Fun - It has to be heard to be believed, With the Sly and The Family Stone & Allman Brothers References and All!
Peace Pipe Starts off like Deep Purple's Woman From Tokyo and Quickly Progresses into Something Altogether Different!
And They Do a Damn Good Encore Of Skynyrd's On The Hunt!
It's an FM Radio Broadcast Recording (WBCN) from the Paradise!
Grab It, Crank It & Love It!
