Product Description
Frettening Behaviour is the latest studio album by guitar legend Albert Lee and his UK-based band Hogan s Heroes. It brings together some fine and diverse material and features five songs penned by members of the band. Released under the band s own Heroic Records imprint and also including a number of gems written by the likes of Jim Lauderdale, Rodney Crowell, Gerry Goffin and Glen Campbell, the set runs the musical gamut, as one might expect from this most eclectic of acts.The album opens with the Green Day classic 'Good Riddance' and is followed by Paul Kennerly s retro rocker 'Spellbound' Then comes 'No One Can Make My Sunshine Smile' a cover of an Everly Brothers single form the 60's. These are followed by 'Oh Marie' penned by band members Gavin Povey and Brian Hodgson and 'The King Of Broken Hearts' which features Peter Baron on lead vocal. Peter takes the lead vocal slot again on the Brian Hodgson / Ray Peters songs 'Showdown' and 'You Know You Just Might'.
Gavin Povey is the featured vocalist on his own compositions 'Big Town Girl', 'When Elvis Broke The News' and 'Looks Like Love'. Albert is the lead vocalist on all the other tracks, which include the evergreen 'My Window Faces The South', Rodney Crowell s beautiful 'A Song For The Life', Richie Havens 'Dreaming As One' and Glen Campbell s poignant 'A Better Place' The cover artwork will be recognisable to many as that of Klaus Voormann, known of course for The Beatles 'Revolver' and 'Anthology' album covers.
Check the album credits for a list of some very special guests who have contributed to this album and you will be in no doubt as to its quality. 'Frettening Behaviour' offers a bumper helping of Albert Lee & Hogan s Heroes distinctive blend of R&R, R&B and country, which reflects where the band is at musically as it moves into 2014. It will surely delight all their faithful followers, as well as hopefully turning on many less committed listeners to the unsung Heroes in their midst.
