|
Label : Petbrook Records Release Year : 1986 Length : 56:01 Review (Amazon) : 1986's Criminal Tango is one of the more intriguing titles in Manfred Mann's Earth Band extensive catalog. Not only is it filled with some of the more memorable cover versions in their four decade career, Criminal Tango is truly a rocking session that keeps their musical tradition alive. This much applauded remastered disc opens with Paul Weller and The Jam's "Going Underground." Complete with the fiery keyboard of Manfred Mann along with the skillful guitar style of Mick Rodgers who returned to the band with this celebrated release. Chris Thompson gets star billing as well, as his vocals are second to none. The bonus tracks are definitely worth shouting about as their classic rock and pop hit "Runner" makes the album worth its weight in gold. Plus additional rare versions of "Do Anything You Wanna Do" and the rare US 45 of "Rebel" only add to the dimension of this release. Friday Music good friends at Creature Music are proud to release Criminal Tango for the first time in North America.

A treasure trove of Manfred Mann's Earth Band from 1986. Enjoy! |
