Ой вместо Quote, нажал на спасибо.  Я думаю меня простят, вообще-то как общеизвестно - я скромный...   Биография:| QUOTE | | Named after a legendary Southern prostitute who allegedly beheaded and mutilated her clients, Jacksonville's Molly Hatchet melded loud hard-rock boogie with guitar jam-oriented Southern rock. Formed in 1975, the group's lineup featured three guitarists -- Dave Hlubek, Steve Holland, and Duane Roland -- plus vocalist Danny Joe Brown, bassist Banner Thomas, and drummer Bruce Crump. The group recorded a self-titled debut album in 1978, which quickly went platinum; the follow-up, Flirtin' With Disaster, was even more successful, selling over two million copies. Brown left the group in 1980 after the constant touring became too tiresome; he was replaced by Jimmy Farrar for Beatin' the Odds, but Farrar's voice was less immediately identifiable, and Molly Hatchet's commercial appeal began a slow decline. The band experimented with horns on Take No Prisoners, but Farrar left for a solo career soon afterwards. Brown rejoined the band in 1982, but the ensuing album, No Guts...No Glory, flopped, and guitarist Hlubek insisted on revamping Molly Hatchet's sound. After The Deed is Done, a straightforward pop/rock album, the group took some time off in 1985 while its Double Trouble Live album, a collection of some of its best-known songs, was released. Molly Hatchet returned in 1989 without Hlubek for an album of straight, polished AOR, Lightning Strikes Twice. Not even the group's fan base bought the record, and they disbanded shortly afterward. Molly Hatchet reunited in the mid-'90s as an active touring outfit, releasing Devil's Canyon, their first record since Lightning Strikes Twice, in 1996. Continuing to recapture the style of their glory days, Silent Reign of Heroes followed in 1998, and Kingdom of XII appeared in early 2001. A slew of live recordings appeared during the next few years, and the band's studio follow-up, Warriors of the Rainbow Bridge, was released in 2005. |
CD Review:
| QUOTE | | They're not as universally known or respected as Lynyrd Skynyrd are, but Southern rockers Molly Hatchet have been on the road for nearly as long and continue to rock on-stage, as evidenced by the 2003 double-disc set Locked and Loaded. Unlike their "big brothers" in Skynyrd, though, Hatchet contained more apparent ties to heavy metal -- especially in their album cover artwork (which often depicts Conan-like warriors doing their thang), as well as in their guitar riffs. Locked and Loaded is a faithful document of latter-day Hatchet in concert doing what they do best -- laying down tough blues-boogie, and to borrow a line from the late great Ronnie Van Zant, "singing songs about the Southland." Standouts include such biker favorites as the set-closing "Flirtin' with Disaster," "Bounty Hunter," and the surprisingly melodic "Fall of the Peacemakers." Molly Hatchet will never be credited with trailblazing the Southern rock genre, yet they should be given props for sticking to their guns and flying the Southern rock flag during the late '70s, when such big guns as Skynyrd and the Allman Brothers were out of commission. And as evidenced by Locked and Loaded, they're still at it all these years later. |
P.S. Для тех понимает по-немецки ---> сюда! | QUOTE | Hier ein Statement von Gitarrist Bobby Ingram zum Live-Album:
"Wenn wir mit Molly Hatchet auf Tour sind, erleben wir in jedemLand der Welt die hingebungsvollsten Southern Rock Fans. Wir sahen, da Musik, Freundschaft und "Ich tret Dir in die Fresse-Rockn Roll" eine universelle Sprache sind.
Wenn Du aus dem südlichen Teil der Vereinigten Staaten kommst, ist es eine feine Sache, auf der ganzen Welt diese Art von Zusammenhalt zu erleben! Wir haben das Gefühl, mit diesem Live Album genau dieses Feeling eingefangen zu haben. Diese Show ist die Beste der Besten, die wir je gespielt haben und den Fans nun pärsentieren können.
Das Doppel Live Album haben wir in Deutschland mitgeschnitten, welches wir als unsere Heimat fernab der Heimat betrachten. Auf "Locked and Loaded" zeigen wir der Welt, da Southern Rock und MOLLY HATCHET immer noch gewaltig Arsch treten!" |
