CD Reviews

Very nice album
Marcello Beckert Zapelini | 07/17/1998
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Chicken Shack is a band little recognized, but its sound is very nice, and the musicians are great! Stan Webb doesn't have an original style, but his guitar playing is brilliant, John Glascock (yes, the same bass player of Jethro Tull)sounds very loud and drummer Paul Hancox was recommended by John Bonham (don't have to say more...). Listen to the version of Tim Hardin's "If I Were a Carpenter", or to Webb's original "The Loser", and you will understand my enthusiasm about this album."
Unsung blues-rock classic!

"British guitarist Stan Webb is one of those great players who somehow has slipped through the cracks in the guitar hero pantheon. Perhaps he's been overshadowed by the "Holy Trinity" of British axemen-Clapton, Beck & Page. One need only to listen to the searing Hendrixian solo on "Poor Boy" (contained on this album)to see exactly what I'm talking about. "Imagination Lady" is Chicken Shack's strongest studio album, as it's the first to fully showcase Webb's talents (Christine McVie had left at this point, removing any folk or pop influences that she may have brought to the band's sound.)This is a powerful blues-rock set comparable to "Led Zeppelin II". A couple slow blues numbers foreshadow the style Webb later brought to Savoy Brown, when he joined them for the "Boogie Brothers" album. The cover songs are well done, especially the oft-covered "Goin' Down"--with Webb giving Jeff Beck a run for his money with his heavier, almost metal version.A must for guitar afficiandos."
