CD - Blackfoot - Strikes
1 CD - UK Import - remastered on Rock Candy
In the pantheon of Southern rock ban, Blackfoot was not only one of the most exciting but also one of the most consistent. Third album ‘Strikes’ was recorded under new and exciting circumstances. The band had signed to the newly reactivated Atco label and changed management, setting in motion a chain of events that would ultimately lead them to secure a platinum album and reach a new worldwide audience.
Released in 1979 and produced by Al Nalli and Henry ‘H-Bomb’ Weck, ‘Strikes’ found its own audience by way of constant live work and a brace of top rate songs, including ‘Train Train’, ‘Road Fever’ , ‘Wishing Well’ and the anthemic Southern rock anthem ‘Highway Song’, a track that would define their sound and ambition. Deluxe collector’s editions. Fully remastered sound shaped from 24 BIT digital technology. 12 page full colour booklets with 3,500 word essays, enhanced artwork, photos and new interviews with Rickey Medlocke.
