Edición remasterizada del primer álbum de Blue Murder. Editado originalmente en 1989, esta remasterización fue publicada en 2013 por Rock Candy Records, una pequeña disquera especializada en bandas de Hard y Heavy de los 80.
Tras su salida de Whitesnake por problemas personales, más bien una lucha de egos entre Coverdale y él, John Sykes decide crear su propio proyecto. Aunque inicialmente a las voces iba a estar Ray Gillen (Badlands) y Cozy Powerll iba a tocar la batería, finalmente fue Carmine Appice el que acabó agarrando las baquetas en la banda, mientras que el propio Sykes se encarga de la voz solisa a la vez que la guitarra. La formación se completaría con Tony Franklin al bajo.
El álbum es un auténtico bombazo. Las comparaciones con el 1987 de Whitesnake son inevitables, sobre todo porque el señor Sykes participó en la composición de prácticamente todo el álbum y este primer disco de Blue Murder es considerado por muchos como una segunda parte de aquél. Lo que no cabe duda es que, con comparaciones o sin ellas, este disco tiene calidad de sobra, tanto en temas como en interpretaciones. Mis temas favoritos del disco son los dos más largos y a mi parecer los más épicos, Valley Of The Kings y Ptolemy, aunque el disco está repleto de buenas canciones.

From RateYourMusic:
His earlier history ignored for now, John Sykes joined David Coverdale and the in-progress Whitesnake as they recorded 1987's self-titled Whitesnake. It was by far the best material i've heard from the band, and was quite possibly the best 'hair metal' album, if you'll pardon the term, ever released. Of course, by the time it was released, Coverdale had already sacked Sykes and put together the genre's greatest-ever cast of clowns to appear in the videos and tour the album.
What can't be ignored, however, is how much that album sat on Sykes' shoulders. As the primary music writer, he was the one most responsible for the sound of that album. Sure, the album contained its share of cheese, but in the context of the genre, it was brilliant.
2 years later, Coverdale and his crew released their follow-up, Slip of the Tongue. Sykes, meanwhile, had formed Blue Murder, who released their own 'self-titled masterpiece' that same year. The end result - 2 albums that, combined, didn't live up to Whitesnake's 1987 release, no matter how hard they tried.
Blue Murder was the better of the two, however, due to tracks such as "Out of Love", "Billy", "Ptolemy", and "Jelly Roll". Sure, "Riot" and "Sex Child" were genretypical crap, but this album did have some solid-enough material going for it. At the time it was released, in fact, i thought the album quite good. Very much dated now, and it really hasn't stood the test of time, but it's really not all that bad. Nothing that's ever going to cause a genre resurgence, however.
John Sykes - vocals, guitar Tony Franklin - bass, vocals Carmine Appice - drums, vocals Nik Green - keyboards produced by Bob Rock 1989 Geffen Records (24212-2) and John Kalodner - John Kalodner highs - Jelly Roll, Out of Love, Billy, Ptolemy lows - Riot, Sex Child, the lyrics in general.
Un EXCELENTE disco. Eso si, Señor Sykes, usted podrá ser un excelente guitarrista, músico, compositor y hasta un buen cantante, pero......el señor David de las Mercedes Coverdale, es EL PUTO AMO. Usted no puede competir con él.
PD1: Como si Sykes fuera a leer ésto
PD2: GRACIAS JARPO LOS ROCKEROS Y LOS SUPERHEROES NO SE CASAN.... ....Y YO ESTOY SALIENDO CON LA MUJER MARAVILLA
