Ah, good ol' Alex Harvey. You either love him or hate him-there is no middle ground. I can remember suggesting a friend of mine buy an Alex Harvey record, and, after listening to it, he threatened me with physical harm. However, two weeks later, he was scouring the town, buying all the Alex Harvey material he could find! I was very pleased with the rereleases of the SAHB material, as it gave listeners a chance to hear more of the band and in a broader spectrum. If you didn't like one song, you would be rewarded for your patience a few songs later. With this in mind, I have to say the "SAHB Stories" & "Rock Drill" twofer is my favorite. After the mind-melt that was "Tomorrow Belongs To Me", "SAHB Stories" was a more straight ahead LP. I found this to be true with "Rock Drill" as well, though to a lesser degree. Both albums, Heck-all of their albums, contained top-notch performances. Alex made sure the band lived up to their "Sensational" tag. My favorites-"Rock Drill", "Who Murdered Sex", "The Boston Tea Party"(Covered quite well by Fish), and "Sultan's Choice". I'm sure, if you are a SAHB fan, you have your favorites. If not, give the band a try. If you don't like it, I know someone that will happily buy it off of you.Read full review
Great tunes,better production. Only the last 2 tracks on 2nd cd are poor.Highly recommended otherwise.
