'Frontier Days', the band s debut album, practically jumped off the turntable when first released in 1984. These guys showed that they could rock as hard as the meanest punk band of the day, but they also kept an ear towards the melody of the songs. With Kempner handling most of the songwriting duties as well as most of the lead vocals, Eric 'Roscoe' Ambel was able to let loose and show off some of the streamlined rock licks that he learned from his former boss. 'Frontier Days' is the picture of a band that is street-smart, hungry and ready to prove to the world that they are a force to be reckoned with...and a force they were! Trowser Press exclaimed 'the Del-Lords embrace rock s basic components with such skill and verve that they outshine most everyone else on the scene.' Rolling Stone gave the album 4 stars, while esteemed rock critic Robert Christgau graded the album an A- (his only complaint was that he didn t feel that LouWhitney s production was commercial enough to get the band well-deserved radio airplay). Almost inexplicably, 'Frontier Days' has never been released on CD until now. Songs include 'How Can A Poor Man Stand Such Times And Live', 'I Play The Drums', 'Burning In The Flame Of Love', 'Get Tough' and the six other tunes on the original release. Also on this release are five never-before-heard bonus tracks and new liner notes from band member Scott Kempner. 'Frontier Days' is a definite must-have for any fan of gritty, honest and powerful rock & roll! http://sharebee.com/d709486a
