April Wine – The Nature Of The Beast

 

Review by Ed Rivadavia

April Wine (like any good wine) got better with age, and the Canadians' brightest moment only arrived over a decade into their career with 1981's The Nature of the Beast. Opener "All Over Town" lurches into action on a lopsided riff before finding its awesome groove, -- a groove they seldom abandon through and to the end of the disc. All-around frontman Myles Goodwyn is in top form, leading the band through some of their most aggressive material ever ("Bad Boys," "Crash and Burn"), as well as through the band's career-defining power ballad "Just Between You and Me." While "Caught in the Crossfire" and "Future Tense" suffer from some cheesy sci-fi lyrics, melodic hard rockers such as "Big City Girls," "One More Time," and "Sign of the Gypsy Queen" (featuring Thin Lizzy-like dual guitar harmonies) pick up the slack in spades.

Another great disc Pax!  Our band used to cover "Just Between You and Me" and my favorite April Wine song, "Roller" :)

That Jim Clark Lotus is a favorite too, I built his Indy winning Lotus for a Cub Scouts Pinewood Derby a couple of years ago :D

Cheers,
Griff

The other dads in the Pack consider me somewhat nuts, LOL
With the kids' cars we go for speed, I consider the Dad's race an opportunity to build realistic models that go fast too.  The Lotus did 4th among the dads.  Here is the one I built the next year.

Cheers,
Griff
