DOC HOLLIDAY RIDES AGAIN (SPECIAL EDITION) (ROCK CANDY)
NAMED AFTER notorious gunslinger John Henry Holliday, this Georgia five-piece were never afraid to charge the enemy lines, Southern flag flapping in the breeze, even when the bullets were whistling close around their ears_ This early '80s `Suvern Rock' classic was initially rejected out of hand by their record Co.
Were in not for the persistence of the band `Rides Again' would not have, uh, `Ridden Again' at all! DH might not have enjoyed the profile of a Skynyrd, a Hatchet or a .38 Special, but they were no poor relations musically, and in `Southern Man' & `Lonesome Guitar' (both featured here) they had songs in their repertoire that can still cause a grown man to crumple at the knees.
Enjoy the music, and if the climax of `Lonesome Guitar' doesn't have you sippin' sour mash from the nearest available stetson , then the stamp on your Southern Rock passport might just have expired! 24-bit remastering from original source tapes, 4,000 word story of the making of 'Rides Again', tons of additional never before seen photos and memorabilia spread out over a 16 page full colour booklet and 2 unreleased bonus tracks taken from the original recording sessions.
