| QUOTE | American GREAT WHITE already are in the 23rd year of existence, many years back coming to at least some stardom with their straight, emotive Blues Hard Rock. After their last album in 1999 (at least the last one that found its way to my ears) it got very quiet on this side of the Atlantic. Only 2003 GREAT WHITE returned to the news, although because of a very, very sad reason, a devastating fire during a gig, which cost 100 people's lives, among them guitarist Ty Langley.
Now I have "Revisiting Familiar Waters" and it is not a new studio album of the quintet around characteristic singer Jack Russell, but a European re-release of an album that in the States had been released under the title of "Recover" in 2002, recorded in 1989 already, but only mixed and mastered in 2001. Now who hopes for long lost compositions of the Americans, might get a little disappointed, because there is not a single own composition for GREAT WHITE pay tribute and homage to their favourite Rock acts and influences, in their very own sound and boy, what a tribute it is.
Among the covered acts are such well known bands such as FREE, STATUS QUO, AC/DC, THE ROLLING STONES, BAD COMPANY, THE CULT and more and even if you do not know the originals, the songs just sound damn good, no matter, which one you might take. My personal favourites are "Tangled Up And Blue" (according to other sources "Tangled Up In Blue" and by Bob Dylan), "Again And Again" by STATUS QUO, BADFINGER's "No Matter What" (already covered by LILLIAN AXE) and of course "Sin City" by none other than AC/DC, but there is not even remotely one filler on here.
Ok, at least among the regular tracks, because at least as far as I am concerned I could have done without the European bonus tracks, in fact I would have loved it, if those had not been included here. There is a horrible, horrible, horrible KMFDM remix of VAN HALEN's "Unchained", an absolute classic, here with Dweezil Zappa on vocals, which is completely destroyed by the electronic remix and the "ROSETTA STONE Remix" of AC/DC's "Sin City", which is not all that bad, but still absolutely forgettable.
But if you leave out these two, then you get a strong, a really strong tribute album in "Revisiting Familiar Waters", which shows classical songs in an equally classical, but different look and a little history lesson in terms of classic Rock that for one has re-awakened my interest in the old GREAT WHITE CDs and on the other hand my hopes for new material of the Americans.
