PERSIAN RISK Ridin' High (1983 UK Neat 7" b/w Hurt You, picture sleeve NEAT24)

Persian Risk formed in 1979 in England by Phil Campbell who has played in Motorhead and Lemmy now for over two decades. Dudes a total hero.
The band made headway by contributing the aforementioned Calling For You to the "Heavy Metal Heroes Vol.2" compilation (Heavy Metal Records, 1982) and also the Ridin' High b/w Hurt You 7" single through Neat, which earned Risk their strongest reviews yet. Lovely back cover photo the way the band looks wearing spikes and leather... cool in a 1983 sorta way. For the die hard early Iron Maiden fan this is not all that far off. The guitar playing is great. Campbell plays and chugs away exactly the way one would want one to in the early metal days with his killer hook riffs, and a solo on "hurt you" that reminds me of some fast Eddie Clark noodles. No wonder Lemmy chose Phil for the Motorhead sound! The main riff in "hurt you" also has a Riot Influence. Cool nwobhm stuff that most metal heads rifle right past when taking the headbanging journey into heaviness.

I love this band. This is a great album, Opening-riff on "All I Need" is awesome though! "Rock Gun"and "Wish I was Rich" are my personal favorites. Great album but very very very very hard to find. This rules!

---------------------------------------------------------

Wish I was rich is my favourite although the other songs are quite enjoyable. If you're an 80's glam fan like me this is a must have (that's why I have it). REALLY COOL ALBUM

---------------------------------------------------------

Awesome band/album, "Kick In Your Face" & "B.A.T.S" being personal favourites, if I recall correctly this will please fans of Madame X.
