GUN: GUN
With the release of their debut album, Gun showed they had the song writing ability to build on their early chart success. They used a well drilled brass section to boost the sound, but the emphasis was on attacking guitars and drums. Their original compositions and arrangements are the basis of this first album. Paul (bass guitar) devised the arrangements that equal the creativity of Adrian's (lead guitar) tunes. With the hard hitting drums of Louie Farrell to spur them on, and the addition of one of those brass sections that fire on all cylinders, they have produced a programme of sustained interest mixing their hit appeal with solid musical ideas. There were few more hard hitting, aggressive bands than the Gun. When the power packed trio blasted their way into the charts with Race With The Devil it looked like the new British band were going to be a major force in rock music. They had a lot going for them.
