Another good track for a blues jam.

When SAHB disbanded Chris Glenn went off to join Michael Schenker Group. Remember his with his stage costume with the light blue cod piece superhero costume.

Right, possibly the greatest song title ever - There's No Lights On The Christmas Tree, Mother, They're Burning Big Louie Tonight

But they listen to Ed Sheeran and Robby "fucking" Williams so that's not saying much.

Budgie had some good ones.

I love this last track. 

Jonathangus

Great album closer.

Yeah...this one is happening for me

Devil#20

It's the only track that I think Zal starts to let loose a bit and show some of his guitar work. I suggest after this session going and having a listen to Last of the Teenage Idols (another 3 parter) off the Next album. Probably my favourite guitar solo of all time on that particular track. Absolute genius. There's a shortened version, you don't want that one.

I'm doing just that!

Jonathangus

Yeah, Next was the other LP my friend bought me.  Some great stuff on there too.

Thanks @Jonathangus - my first SAHB album listen!

Devil#20

I don't know if the album has ended for you but I've got Smouldering and Chase it into the Night left. Very different tracks to most of the album. Some great guitar work on Smouldering. Vocals aren't Alex either. 

Jonathangus

Good when an album leaves you wanting more, and doesn't outstay its welcome.  Who's off to the Classifieds looking for an SG?

Sounds like you've got bonus tracks!

Jonathangus

Yeah, they're not on the original LP.

I didn't think so. This is an old CD I'm playing. I've also got the vinyl and don't think they are on there. The Next CD I have has a shortened version of Last of the Teenage Idols on it compared to my vinyl copy.
