They just don't make music like this anymore...

Genre: NWoBHM

A compilation of sorts, collecting the 1980s-demo and some additional material, "Big Daisy" was released last year on High Roller Records, and, thus, on of the more obscure NWoBHM releases has been made a tad more available to the headbanging community.

Featuring none other than Merv Spence, this release is more on the hard rock side of things, but still features some of the elements that are associated with NWoBHM. Apart from a couple of ballad, the tracks on the album are dynamic rock songs with a nice drive, combining the grove and blues tendencies of 70s hard rock with the more hard edged metal of the 80s, but there is also a slight new age rock feel to some passages.

The production is, of course, not up-to-date, this originally being early 80s demo material, but this does not detract from thee mostly experience of listening to the music.

Fans of hard rock and NWoBHM aficionados as well as rock history buffs should definitely get a hold of this release; they just don't make this kind of music anymore.
