RUSHHEAD666 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) Guys! I only found one Pat Travers Thread on here and it was written by me years ago! No responses!! What The Fukk? This is A Forum who knows their hard rock, blues and metal! No love for Pat Fukking Travers? Does not compute!!! You ever listen to his debut album? 1976 Incredible.Did you know that Pat Travers opened for Rush in 1977 on the "A Farewell To Kings" Tour? Then the stellar album "Makin' Magic" came out! Following that is his epic release "PUTTING IT STRAIGHT!" Not only will the music kick your ass but the album cover is Legendary! "LIFE IN LONDON!" Pat actually lived in London while he was playing live gigs.Neil went to London to sell widgets and failed he had to go back to Canada to make his millions! Did you know that Iron Maiden Great was in the Pat Travers Band? He rules! Then of course "Heat In The Street" came out next. Tommy Aldridge played the skins on that album! After that came a sweet kick ass live album! Then came "Crash And Burn" featuring "Snorting Whiskey, Drinking Cocaine." For some reason Pat wanted to add more keyboards and add less guitar. The "Radioactive" album was a bust!f***ing Eighties ruined every band from the fuckking Seventies! JMO! Well Polydor Records dropped Pat but he sued them and was able to make the "Black Pearl" album. He still failed on the record charts. It didn't matter though thanks to RUSH! Alex, who loves Pat hired him once again to open for Rush on the "Grace Under Pressure" Tour! Pat is still putting out albums and playing live all over Canada, the USA and Europe. He's coming around again! I can't wait! He's at Harrah's in South Lake Tahoe! March 7th! PAT TRAVERS RULES!! If you are "Hooked On Music" like me, then you will love his cd catalog!! Edited January 30, 2015 by RUSHHEAD666 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narps Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) Agreed. Preach'in to the choir here. I have all his stuff up to Crash And Burn. He was part of my favorite show ever, opening for the Bon Scott AC/DC on Oct. 16, 1979. Never forget it!! :cheers: Edited January 30, 2015 by Narpski 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foghorn-leghorn Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Was my first guitar hero, followed by Frank Marino ! Was thrilled to see him live in a smal club in Holland a few years ago. Makin Magic was a brilliant album.It had both Scott Gorham and Nicko McBain on it. It really should have been his "Break-through" album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
