General Interest Slave To The Thrill NEWLY REMASTERED - EXTENSIVE BOOKLET- 2 BONUS TRACKS. Hurricane is an American heavy metal band formed in 1983, originally featuring current Foreigner lead vocalist Kelly Hansen (vocals/rhythm guitar), Robert Sarzo (guitar), Tony Cavazo (bass), and Jay Schellen (drums). Cavazo and Sarzo are the younger brothers of Quiet Riot's Carlos Cavazo and Rudy Sarzo. Quiet Riot's Kevin DuBrow introduced Robert Sarzo and Tony Cavazo in the early 1980s. After deciding to form a band, Sarzo and Cavazo recruited singer Kelly Hansen, drummer Jay Schellen and guitarist Michael Guy. With little label interest, the band decided to release an album themselves, Take What You Want. The album and constant touring led to them getting a major label deal. In 1986 and 1987, they opened for Stryper on their To Hell with the Devil album tour. They were soon signed to Enigma Records, the same label as Stryper. They also opened for Gary Moore's 1987 US tour. In 1988, the band released their major label debut album, Over the Edge. Propelled by a powerful, yet melodic heavy metal sound, the album made 92 on the US album charts and featured a cover of Alice Cooper's "I'm Eighteen," as well as the band's most successful song, the Jeff Jones-penned "I'm on to You." The title track, "Over the Edge", was also released as a single. In 1989, Sarzo left the group and was replaced by ex-Lion guitarist, Doug Aldrich. This line-up recorded the album Slave to the Thrill, which was released in 1990. With their third offering, Hurricane provides us with arguably their best effort. Filled with the hooky, highly infectious melodies that beg you to sing along with them, Slave To The Thrill is an album that could easily define the term hair metal band. Led by the dramatic vocals of Kelly Hansen, you will quickly be taken back to the days of groups like Whitesnake and Foreigner. Not surprising, Kelly would join the group Foreigner after the break-up of Hurricane, as a replacement for Lou Gramm. Doug Aldrich s riffs and licks combined with Kelly Hansens vocals, Jay Schellens drums, and Tony Cavazos bass, it was obvious this was an off-the-charts outing. Opener Reign of Love solidifies that within seconds, its a hell of a way to kick things off. Next To You has this riff that melts all defences, and Hansen sings his ass off. Young Man is Aldrichs show from start to finish, and an anthem for rebellion. The sexy groove of Dance Little Sister is no accident the band knew exactly what they were doing and it shows. This brings us to one of all-time favourite ballads in the world, Dont Wanna Dream where the chorus is absolutely beautiful. Temptation, 10,000 Years let Aldrich once again comes up with some killer guitar sounds. After a short interlude comes In the Fire with a bluesy riff and Let Is Slide, an absolute great swamp-boogie. A slick bass groove permeates Lock me Up and is only accented further by Aldrichs six-string magic once again. The record concludes with hellraiser and barnburner Smiles Like a Child. Overall though, Slave to the Thrill from HURRICANE still stands as one of the best albums from the period of hair metal. The album's relative lack of success could be attributed to changing musical climates. Shortly after the release of this album, Aldrich moved on to Bad Moon Rising. Slave to the thrill is one that has everything that a fan of this type of music would ever want. Shipping Shipping is free for all customers in Australia.
