Blood On The Saddle "Fresh Blood" 1987

Horses and Ponies going crazy!!!
With one acoustic rest period, the band's blood runs hotter on the third album, an uneven race with the devil that uses flat-out tempos on hard-rocking originals related to country music more by structural inspiration than content. (Indicative of the shifting personality, covers of "Rawhide" and "Folsom Prison Blues" are crazed but bland, hand-me-downs that no longer fit.) As a singer, Davis thrives in this exciting environment, but Zilinskas' efforts to keep pace with the charging rhythms and skillet-licking solos strip the twangy character from her voice. trouserpress
