TRACKLIST:
Artist : Impellitteri Country : USA Release : Stand In Line Year : 1988 Genre : Heavy Metal File Type : mp3 320 Info:
It's 1988 and Impellitteri has a completely new band including Graham
Bonnet, who has also sang for MSG, Rainbow and Alcatrazz, keyboardist
Phil Wolfe, ex-Quiet Riot/Ted Nugent bassist Chuck Wright, and ex-Ted
Nugent drummer Pat Torpey. The music is an obvious attempt at commercial
success, so much so that there is even a cover of Rainbow's "Since
You've Been Gone" that Bonnet sang on originally. Of all the
Impellitteri discs I own, this is my least favorite, but it is also his
most well known. After this disc Graham Bonnet would split and
Impellitteri would hook back up with original singer Rob Rock.
TRACKLIST:
Artist : Impellitteri Country : USA Release : Grin And Bear It Year : 1992 Genre : Heavy Metal File Type : mp3 320 Info:
"Grin & Bear It" features the incredible voice of Rob Rock, along
with bassist Chuck Wright, drummer Ken Mary, and shredmaster Chris
Impellitteri. Ken Mary, along with Rob Rock, will stay with Impellitteri
for years to come solidifying the Impellitteri line-up until the
millennium. Musically this disc is a transition between the
neo-classical Yngwie style of the first EP and the more commercial metal
of "Stand in Line."
TRACKLIST:
Artist : Impellitteri Country : USA Release : Eye Of The Hurricane Year : 1998 Genre : Heavy Metal File Type : mp3 320 Info:
The bonus disc is suppose to be the "Victim of the System" EP but as
you can see from the track listing above, it has different songs than
the original EP. "Eye of the Hurricane" continues in the same mode as
"Screaming Symphony" with Chris Impellitteri's lightning-fast,
neo-classical guitar licks and quick rhythms and Rob Rock's clean,
strong vocals. This album is just a hair heavier but also seems to
incorporate more keyboards than in the past. The keys are used more as
an effect than anything else. I picked up this disc for $4! Couldn't
believe it when I saw it. One of the two discs has a few light marks on
it but it plays fine.
