Ok…it’s 1975 and like others before them, Buffalo were at the crossroads. Sure they were packing them out across the country on the endless town hall circuit but the albums were still very much cult items which is all fine and groovy but it doesn’t pay the bills nor keep your record company willing to release and promote your music. SOLUTION: Ditch the guitarist/songwriter and seek new directions.
Which brings us 1976’s "Mothers Choice".
Personally, this is one of my favourite Buffalo albums. The sound is a big move forward with the times, more traditional in the song structuring and the lyric topics. If you can imagine The Rolling Stones' "Brown Sugar" played with more power then you’d be not far off the track.
This really is a great hard hitting high energy rock & roll album. The songs are meaty, short (for Buffalo standards) and dynamic.
New guitarist & music writer Karl Taylor playing is very much in the Paul Kosoff, Mick Ralphs style ie; tough & tight. Singer Dave Tice finally gets a chance to do some great Rock and Roll singing and his lyrics and melodys are strong and catchy. Bass player Peter Wells is really on fire on these tracks. His playing weaves around all the instruments yet like all great players never over does it. Drummer Jimmy “The Greek” Eonomou seems to be in his element here, like Wells he plays exactly what is needed for the songs. Short term slide player Norm Roue appears on most of the tracks here and his playing at times is incredible. It’s not hard to hear where Pete Wells (who after Buffalo starting playing slide and formed the mighty Rose Tattoo) got a lot of his inspiration.
Hell, with the right promotion this album could have been a hit, but one gets the impression that as far as the music industry and radio stations were concerned Buffalo had perhaps lost their chance at being accepted (if only Phonogram in Australia had bribed the right people).
