CD Review - Greg Golden Band

Greg Golden Band by Greg Golden Band (As Reviewed on February 3rd, 2016)





Band Bio: (As shamelessly stol...borrowed from their Facebook page)

The Greg Golden Band is a classic rock band composed of 6 members... They are all pros and have many years of experience touring and playing...Greg Golden lead guitar/vocals. Owner and founder of Bizarre Guitar Reno. The band has two lead singers (Randy Scoles and Paul Holdgate), Steve Brown on drums and Larry Hart on bass. All four of these members have played with the Late Ronnie Montrose. Also Jeff Montgomery on guitar/vocals.

We are proud to be a part of Frank Hannon’s record label "RedHawk Records". Earlier this year they released an album produced by Frank Hannon of Tesla. One of the songs off the album was recently voted as a top 20 new release by U.S. bands by Galaxia Radio in Europe for 2015. The band has another song that has accrued over 3.6 Million views on YouTube. The second album is in progress with Frank Hannon at his Red Hawk Record's studio. We have several sets of originals and also have an extensive list of cover songs, including Montrose, ZZ Top, Hendrix, Cream, Robin Trower, Credence, Rolling Stones and many others.

The Greg Golden Band has backed up Sebastian Bach, Y&T, Frank Hannon Band, L.A. Guns among other noted rock and roll bands.

Onyx's Review:
This album is full of amazing songwriting, arranging and overall awesome sauce!  It’s a very blusey rock and roll piece of perfection that was fun to listen to.  My favorite tracks on this album are and Man on the Silver Mountain (Which is a cover of Rainbow’s golden-era career work) and Back to Reno. I am partial to songs written about Reno as it is my hometown. Even my friend Rich, who is picky when it comes to music, enjoyed this album very much.   
I highly recommend this album for anyone that enjoys 70s and 80s era rock n roll.  You won’t be disappointed.
