Pat Travers - "Born Under A Bad Sign" From the album Crash And Burn (1980)

Last song scrobbled from iTunes at Last.fm

There is an inexorable rhythm to the Cream version that's hard to match. But still, I may prefer this version to Cream's. It certainly rocks harder.

Friday, April 12, 2024: 3pm ET: Feature Artist: Pat Travers

Patrick Henry Travers (born April 12, 1954) is a Canadian rock guitarist, singer and songwriter who began his recording career in the mid-1970s. Travers was born and raised in Toronto. Soon after picking up the guitar at age 12, he saw Jimi Hendrix perform in Ottawa. Travers began playing in bands early in his teens; his first bands were the Music Machine (not to be confused with the Californian…

With his hard, edgy tone, rough and rowdy vocals, and barroom boogie aesthetic, Canadian singer, guitarist, and keyboardist Pat Travers is a fine example of a Canadian bluesy hard rock act. He arrived during the '70s heyday of hard blues-rocking guitar heroes. His eight-album run for Polydor -- from his eponymous 1976 debut through 1984's Hot Shot -- netted seven Top 200 chart placements and two Top 40 singles, including the party anthem classic "Boom Boom (Out Go the Lights)." Subsequently, he placed four singles in the Hot 100, and two more in the upper rungs of the Mainstream Rock Songs charts. Travers is equally adept at playing funk, jazz, and prog. He has toured almost annually for more than 40 years, playing more than 150 dates per year. Paul Gilbert has referred to Travers as a "guitar god" and Kirk Hammett of Metallica has cited him as one of his favourite guitar players.

Pat Travers "The Art of Time Travel"

Sempre és agradable sentir un nou treball d'aquesta llegenda del BluesRock.

Com el seu nom indica, sembla que Pat hagi fet un viatge en el temps, portant-se el millor dels 70 amb una sonoritat contemporània, i és que el power-trio sona potent i net.

Tot i que aquest àlbum té més de Rock que no pas de Blues (pinzellades), segueix la línia de'n Travers, combinant temes potents com "The Art of Time Travel", "Ronnie" (tribut al seu company i influència Ronnie Montrose) o "No Worries At All" amb ambientació menor però amb molta pegada, juntament amb altres més pausats com "Over and Over" o la instrumental "Natalie", dedicada a la dona del baixista David Pastorious (si, si...el fill de Jaco). La divertida "Push Yourself" consta de secció de vents, al més pur estil The Who, que li dóna un aire molt festiu. "Move On", amb una intro molt eclèctica, camina a la perfecció. I és que Pat Travers va tenir temps durant el confinament d'arrodonir aquest àlbum i deixar l'empremta a modo de 'dedicatòria' en "Breaking up in Lockdown", un tema de 3 acords que sona sol.

Si t'agrada Pat Travers, no el pots deixar passar, ara bé, com a introducció a la seva extensa obra (tot i que té temes bons), no seria el millor treball.
