Free Music Review: "Pride" - An Essential Compilation
Hit: 5 Stars
Living Colour had their greatest commercial success during 1988 - 91, when they managed to score hit singles, MTV exposure, an opening slot on the Rolling Stones' 1989 "Steel Wheels" tour, and a slot on the first Lollapalooza tour. By the time "Pride" was issued in late 1995, this generous and nicely packaged set didn't even crack the Billboard Top 200. What happened?
Like Guns 'n' Roses, LC bridged the late '80s 'hair metal' era and the '90s 'grunge' era. "Pride", with nearly 80 minutes of material, collects highlights from "Vivid" (1988), "Time's Up" (1990), the EP "Biscuits" (1991), and "Stain" (1993) their least commercial album, and the one that saw Doug Wimbish (late of Tackhead and the Sugarhill house band) replace Muzz Skillings on bass.
Even if one has the group's four previous albums, "Pride" has much to offer: 4 brand new tracks from a never completed album (recorded at the end of 1994) are all superb, showing the band exploring a more ominous, bass-centered sonic approach with dub influenced textures, for an overall edgier sound - clearly an extension of "Stain", with great riffs and playing, and some of their best ever lyrics. With each release, LC was moving away from their only flaw, the occasional bombast that slightly marred the first two albums. These tracks, taken together, are well worth the discount price of the CD, but there is more: a longer version, and different mix, of "What's Your Favorite Colour" betters the original, and the superb Soulpower Remix of "Love Rears Its Ugly Head" makes for a very refreshing alternative to the version on "Time's Up". The remaining tacks (including a live 'Memories Can't Wait') will be familiar to those who know the band's catalog, but the sequencing of this set is also one of its pleasures. As originally stated, this is a very generous set, way better than the subsequent 'Super Hits' (cheesy!), and as put together by the band, nicely covers the 1988 - 95 period of their career. Too bad we had to wait until 2003 for the reunion!
