http://rock6070.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2899A really obscure collectors piece for you now, this is the lone album by Texan Hard Rock/AOR band Sirius, 1979's "Rising". Some of you with long memories or eclectic record collections may remember earlier Texan bands BUBBLE PUPPY & DEMIAN, who both released one off albums in the late '60's and early '70's. Guitarists Rod Price & Todd Potter had been mainstays of both of those bands, and after several years apart, reunited in the late 70's in a new quartet which they named Sirius and recorded this underrated little record. Fans of their previous acts will probably be a little disappointed by "Rising" initially as hit has none of the psychedelia or fuzz guitarwork which were hallmarks of the earlier bands, but approached with an open mind their is much to enjoy & admire here. The closest comparison i can come up with is that it reminds me of TOMMY BOLIN era JAMES GANG in places, especially on stand out track, "No Idea". Some of the songs veer off too far into radio rock territory for my tastes, but the defy twin guitarwork rescues even the poppier songs. Todd Potter also deserves special praise for his fantastic vocals, sounding great whatever tangent the music takes him on. Give it a listen, lemmy know what you reckon.http://liveandotherwise.blogspot.fr/ Vlan ! On croit entendre le "Lumberjack" de
