PUSH

Digitally remastered edition of this 1987 album from the British Melodic Rock/AOR band. Push, the bands second and - as it turned out - final album, was delivered to a market that was rapidly changing and by a company that was, in the main, looking to make quick scores. Produced in San Francisco by Kevin Elson, the record presented a far more mature approach to their craft. Once again, the songs were magnificent, the production being equally as exciting and the arrangements beyond reproach but with a record tailor made for the American market they really needed to a hit single, something that sadly never materialized. With the band stranded in Manchester and with no ability to tour the US, the record company quickly lost interest, exacerbating a slow death which began when drummer Jason Bonham opted to leave the band. Rock Candy. 2010.
