Free Myself Line up: Michael Lee Smith - vocals Richie Ranno - guitar Peter Scance - bass Doug Madick - drums Joe Lynn Turner - background vocals (tracks 1,7,8,9) Record Label / Year of Release: King Klassic Records 1992 Notes: After Starz folded initially in 1980, Ranno and Smith put together the excellent (and very Starz-like), Hellcats, and released this Mini LP, "Hellcats I", a great little record which disappeared without a trace as their label went tits up 3 weeks after it's release. Eventually, Hellcats went their seperate ways, but by the mid-'80's Richie Ranno had assembled a totally new line up and recorded a full length album, the imaginatively titled "Hellcats" or "Hellcats 2" in its CD incarnation. Clear? Musically, it's still very Starz-esque, but has some more modern sounding reference points too. |
