Found this stuck over in my favs. sorta forgot all about it...anyone with
more knowledge, **kindly** clue me in. Anyone heard this, what's it like...got
an mp3 you can send me or share with the group etc....?? (obviously I'm only
interested in Page's part) AND I must admit, I am NOT familiar with the album
"Shaking Street"...thus why I ask.
SHAKIN’ STREET-Solid As Rock – Live & Raw (Bad Reputation)
SHAKIN’ STREET was the band, in which Ross The Boss of MANOWAR played,
before he went to this ultimate heavy metal outfit. The band hailed from
France,
and who is not familiar with their album “Shaking Street”? This album is
re-released right now on CD. Who cares, I hear you think! Allright, but when
you
know that the live album “Live & Raw” is added to this CD as a bonus, then it
’s getting much more interesting. Especially, when two of the live tracks
have guest appearances by well-known rock giants like Buck Dharma of BLUE
OYSTER
CULT in “Vampire Rock” and LED ZEPPELIN guitar hero Jimmy Page in “Mome Des
Villes”. But that’s on the live part of this CD. First let’s have a short,
closer look at the studio album. It contains the nine tracks that are also on
the LP version of the album, nothing more and nothing less. “Generation X”
is the highlight of the album, together with “I Want To Box You” for the
great guitar solo in it. An album, that is full of ‘easy on the ear’ rock
music
with loud guitars. SHAKIN’ STREET consisted of Ross The Boss on guitars,
Eric Lewy on rhythm guitar, Mike Winter on bass, Jean-Lou Kalinowski on drums
and Fabienne Shine on vocals. The same band line up can be heard on the live
album, added to this CD as a bonus, which was recorded on two tracks during
the
bands North American Tour of 1980. While the song, they recorded with Jimmy
Page, was recorded at a studio in Paris, France. It brings the total running
time of this eighteen song CD to over seventy-five minutes, which is very
good value for your money indeed. The intro tape for their live set is “Die
Wahlkühre” of Richard Wagner, the same one that MICHAEL SCHENKER used during
his
earlier live gigs. Live we hear the same sound, maybe a bit more solid and
heavier than on the studio album. The greater value of this disc definitely is
the live material, and therefor I added an extra point to their score. Great
stuff! [9 points] (Toine van Poorten)
