Visually graded vinyl Near-MINT with "Alsdorf" matrix stamp; Jacket VG+ small sticker removal surface tear/residue on top right corner; info/Picture inner sleeve VG++ NO seam splits "For some reason when Dirty Looks first appeared on the scene I passed them off as a poor mans AC/DC. Musically, they are definitely drinking from the same cup. They play that blues laced dirty rock n’ roll but with a tad more commercial vibe.
This album came out in ’89 and was the follow up to the successful Cool From The Wire. Nobody Rides For Free is that basic DC formula, but with a great hook and chorus. The title track and C’mon Frenchie are sleezed up glam fests with the latter grooving along at a great pace. Take What Yo Get is my favourite tune. It’s a great boogie driven song with a great riff, and the hook and chorus are killer.
Sometimes the DCisms are a bit close, like the opening riff and groove to Love Screams which steals the main riff to Let There Be Rock. Great song though! I do like my rock n’ roll simple with plenty of riffs and grooves, and Dirty Looks tick all those boxes. A great fun record."
