Free Music Review: BLACKFOOT, IT BEGINS
Hit: 5 Stars
TO CORRECT THE REVIEW ABOVE THE SONGS WERE WRITIN' BY SPIRES AND RICKY MEDLOCKE. THERE WAS A LEGAL ISSUE WITH SKYNYRD'S MANAGEMENT THAT WAS EASY TO SOLVE BY PUTTING JUST SPIRES NAME.(CHECK MY REVIEW ON SKYNYRD'S FIRST AND LAST FOR MORE DETAILS ON THAT.)THIS WAS A GREAT DEBUT BY BLACKFOOT AND IT'S RELEASED ON CD AFTER ALMOST 30 YEARS. LP'S FOR THE ALBUM WERE SELLING FOR 300$ ON EBAY AND OTHER SITES. MAIN SONGS OF INTEREST ARE RAILROAD MAN,BORN TO ROCK N' ROLL,BIG WHEELS,I STAND ALONE. NOT THEIR BEST BUT A GOOD ALBUM, WORTH HAVING.Free Music Review: A Diamond in the Rough...

I've been a Blackfoot fan since 1979 and for some reason this album kept slipping under the radar. I was a vinyl collector long before CD's came out and I don't recall ever seeing this one in the store or I would have bought it just because it was Blackfoot. So now after 23 years I finally bought the CD. What a pleasure it was to finally hear these songs written by the late great Jakson Spires. Not only was he an outstanding drummer he was also the chief songwriter for this amazing rock band. 'Railroad Man' is an instant classic written by Mr.Shorty Medlock, Rickey's grand-dad. Lots of good stuff here. Probably my personal favorite is a song called 'Stars'. It about another great band who 'makes it' and in the eyes of a struggling Blackfoot, seems to forget who their friends are. But Blackfoot 'Stands Alone' (another favorite from No Reservations)and will find their success to be just as rewarding as the subject of the song.
I would highly recommend this CD even at the import price.
Free Music Review: Blackfoot's Debut Is GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hit: 5 Stars
NO RESERVATIONS, Blackfoot's debut album, now out on CD, is great. The opening and closing song, "Railroad Man" is a terrific blues number that just flat out rocks, and the rest of the album is, too. It's highly unfortunate that this album had languished in the vaults until it was reissued on CD in 2004, just in time to coincide with the band's reunion. The fact that the surviving members of Blackfoot, past and present advocate sanctions against countries that convict foreign tourists on false charges, increased funding for law enforcement, and the death penalty or life without parole for aggravated kidnapping makes NO RESERVATIONS an essential purchase for both your ears AND your conscience.Free Music Review: Flyin' High simply ROCKS!

The second release from Florida is a rocker. From the opening up tempo "Feelin' Good" all the way through the poignant "Mother" that closes the disc, this one is well worth the price. Medlocke has moved on to be a part of Lynyrd Skynyrd, but Blackfoot lives on with the killer tunes they layed down through the late 70's and 80's. Check out how tight this band was with this release and their first one "No Reservations". Blackfoot has always been one of those feel good, bluesy-rockin' southern bands, not really fitting into the mold of the typical southern rock band. Just buy it and crank it, you'll be glad you did!
