Chris Spedding's Hurt album is a tremendous rock and roll recording!
Words do not do this 1977 classic justice. The man is a master of subtlety and power, addressing the "punk" phenomenon then prevalent yet remaining firmly rooted in blues, soul, rock and roll. Who else did "I Ain't Superstitious" wearing a black leather jacket in those days? And check out the ensemble playing just before the guitar break in "Hurt By Love." The man shows off his awsome rythym chops BEFORE riffing out, locking with the band tighter than a medeival chastity belt. Quirky humor abounds in guitar solos, lyrics and arrangements. This was Britain's "Marquee Moon" taking itself far less seriously. Reviewer: Sean McDonough (Astoria, NY United States)

I'm quite sure to have DL this album in the past....but sadly didn't listen to it.
Today, it's time to discover this album !
Sir RYP thanks again !

thanks
Thanks!
One hell of a classic album, all great tunes, more or less my favourite '77 album (besides The Stranglers' No More Heroes and Eno's Before and After Science). Good to see this getting attention again.
