Corridors of Power in Bloomington, MN

This is the first of Irish guitar virtuoso
Gary Moore
's true
heavy metal
albums. Boasting a crisp, aggressive sound,
Corridors of Power
kicks off with the foot-stomping
"Don't Take Me for a Loser,"
delivers the token power
ballad
in
"Always Gonna Love You,"
and floors the gas pedal on
"Rockin' Every Night."
However, the album's climax has to be the epic
"End of the World,"
with it's two-minute long guitar-solo intro and vocals courtesy of
Cream
's
Jack Bruce

EMI
release includes bonus track material]. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia
