| GARY MOORE-Wild Frontier[Japan SHM-CD remastered +3][Limited Release] (2016)
Universal Music Japan is reissuing in 2016 nine rock masterpieces from GARY MOORE featurig cardboard sleeve cover artwork, the high-fidelity SHM-CD format and the latest remastered sound - plus bonus tracks.
"Wild Frontier" is one of Gary Moore more "80s sounding album", melodic and with lots of keyboards according to the era (1987), but
still his killer guitar chops are present all over the record.
By 1987, Gary Moore was a well established and experienced guitarist,
known for his recordings with Thin Lizzy, Colosseum II and many others,
as well as his solo career which by then was going quite well worldwide.
Since about '83, though, he had been going through the motions,
releasing a couple of very commercial sounding LP's. However, in 1986,
his friend and musical soulmate Phil Lynott passed away, and the
devastation triggered Gary's inspiration.
He decided to go back to the Irish-tinged hard rock of his Lizzy days,
and dedicate his next record to Phil. This turned out to be quite a
successful experiment.
Gary took the melodies and harmonies of Thin Lizzy, spiced them up with
his own blinding guitar skills, and framed it all inside a typical,
reverb-heavy 80s-style production.
The songs on here range from dramatic, storytelling epics, to pop metal,
to bleeding instrumentals and even pure Irish inspired music.
"Wild Frontier" contains the impossibly epic hit "Over the Hills and Far
Away" which reached #20 in the UK, as well as a cover of the Australian
band The Easybeats' hit of the middle of the 1960s, "Friday on My
Mind", done in quirky mid-Eighties vein plenty of synths.
"Strangers in the Darkness" is prime a '80s AOR midtempo, "Take a Little
Time" is a heartbreaker melodic rocker with a unique Irish feel, while
the pumping title track carries - dare I say- the greatest Moore's
melodic guitar line ever.
"Thunder Rising" is one of the most devastating hard rockers ever, while
the mega-emotional "The Loner" - penned by Max Middleton and originally
recorded by Cozy Powell - was substantially altered by Moore for his
own recording, thus he was credited as a co-writer.
"Johnny Boy" is probably the most touching farewell Philip Lynott ever
got after his passing, and now considered a Gary Moore classic.
Originally, the album packed 8 tracks. But the CD edition included two
awesome versions of "Over the Hills and Far Away" and "Wild Frontier",
both extended 12” mixes, something common around in 1987 and a pure
delight for '80s suckers.
Additionally, there's an additional gem: "Crying In The Shadows", one of
the most elegant, atmospheric and pure AOR tunes ever recorded by Gary
Moore. A must.
But wait, there's more in this remastered reissue; an extended mix of
"The Loner" (killer), a 12'' version of "Friday on My Mind", and a hot
live recording of "Out in the Fields".
Many times criticized for the use of programmed drums (come on, this was
1987!) and too many keyboards, "Wild Frontier" is a great '80 product
by Gary Moore.
If you love the Melodic Rock / AOR sound of the era, you must own this
CD. You simply can not beat the catchy choruses, the sharp guitars, the
harmonies and the lyricism on this album!
The sound on this SHM-CD is top notch and it's sold pretty cheap so hurry up, it's a limited release.
I love the '80s!
