I saw on the LA Guns board that some fans are curious about Lovehammers' music, and asking what we fans recommend.
Here's what I posted in the thread, and there were a lot of good comments by other familiar folks.
Yes, so many good songs to choose from. One of my faves is an often-overlooked cut from the album L'Strange, called "Undertow". I like that one even better on the Shuba's acoustic show disc, but electric is good, too.
L'Strange is such an excellent album! I think I saw it's available at CD Baby now, and also on iTunes, if I recall.
I like the original version of "Eyes Can't See" a lot, too. The part that was cut from the 2006 CD version is my fave part of the song. It's just so totally badass! He sings in a mix of a low whisper and growl "I don't care if you're scared........I don't care if everybody stares....yeeeahhhhh......" with a menacing bass line in the background, then it launches back into full band, with Marty in full-throated scream again. WOW!!!! Love it!
Edited to add: I forgot to mention that the original version of "Eyes Can't See' is on their CD "Murder On My Mind", which is from 2004, if I recall. It's still available online, and I've even seen it at Best Buy stores now and then. It's also available at the Lovehammers Store, www.lhstore.com . You can find Lovehammers' latest DVD at their store, along with Tshirts and all kinds of other goodies.
The 2006 CD, Marty Casey and Lovehammers, is there as well, and also the Acoustic Chicago CD, which has their song "Driving Blind" on it. "Driving Blind" reminds me a bit of "The Ballad of Jayne"--moving song, has strings on it, very cool! There are also a lot of other talented Chicago artists on that CD. I really enjoy the whole thing. There are several female singers on there whose voices totally blow me away--Jen Porter, Sarah Potenza, and Micki Croisant. Andreas Kapsalis is an acoustic guitar virtuoso who is featured on the Acoustic Chicago CD. He has done movie soundtracks, too. Oh yeah, Acoustic Chicago is not only the CD, but also a DVD of the artists performing all of the songs on there.
