My initial feeling is that it is excellent but it's a record you need to live with for a while to fully appreciate its charms. Well on to this record, 'Take It On Faith'. Having said that, Skynyrds' last LP 'Last of a Dying Breed' was also excellent. I think Robert Plant and Jeff Beck have made great new records in their later years - but I can't think of too many more among the older generation of the great rock artists. Yes they can still play well - but can they create as well. I tend to think when great artists get older they often lose the original fire in their bellies that made them great. It is a disappointment that there are not a whole heap of albums with her lead vocals on them - she's a great singer.īut then I was also nervous about this record. I thought Dale's vocals were up there with the best female rock vocals ever. I absolutely loved the Rossington Collins LP 'Anytime, Anyplace, Anywhere' (which Classic Rock criminally labelled as a record to avoid) from 1980 with Dale on lead vocals. When I learned a short while ago that Gary Rossington was going to release a new album with his wife Dale on vocals I was so excited and I pre-ordered it straight away.
