Travers & Appice= rather average actually

It takes a lot of Balls
Travers & Appice
(SPV)

You would expect a CD with Carmine Appice and Pat Travers (with T.M. Stevens) on it to be rather good, considering their pedigrees. In fact what you get is a lack-luster collection of bluesy rock with very few highlights. I listened to this CD several times expecting to finally get it and nothing was forthcoming. If only the entire CD was a good as the funked-up track 'Stand Up', things would be great. Things just never gets out of second gear and gets going. The lyrics are banal and rather lame...the music is twee. Looks like this is another supergroup that is less super and more just a group. Oh well, it could be a lot worse I guess.

Rating: 2.5/5
