April 25, 2011

Check out the Rock Genre New Releases

THE ALBUM OF THE DAY
DAMN YANKEES...Damn Yankees (1990)
(CD, Allmusic review)

This album reached number 13 on the U.S. Billboard album charts. I have always thought this was a great listen. "High Enough" alone is reason enough to buy this CD. What a great song! Ted Nugent fits in just fine with the others in the band, as this is probably the "calmest" music he's ever released. Other highlights: "Come Again" and "Runaway". Very recommended
