Live! Go for What You Know album Product Description
Live! Go for What You Know album by Pat Travers / Pat Band Travers was released Apr 06, 1993 on the Polygram label. Recorded live at the Opry House, Austin, Texas; Great Southern Music Hall, Orlando, Florida; Great Southern Music Hall, Gainesville, Florida; Gusman Hall, Miami, Florida in January and February 1979. Live! Go for What You Know songs All songs written or co-written by Pat Travers except "Boom Boom (Out Go The Lights)" (Stan Lewis). Pat Travers never sounded more focused and inspired than he does on Live! Go for What You Know, which was recorded during the Canadian hard rocker/blues-rocker's U.S. tour of early 1979. Live! Go for What You Know album Travers can really burn on stage, and this album reflects that. Backed by guitarist Pat Thrall (who had been a member of the obscure space rock band Automatic Man in 1976 and 1977), bassist Mars Gowling, and drummer Tommy Aldridge, the singer is in top form on explosive, definitive versions of funky originals like "Heat in the Street," "Gettin' Betta," and "Makes No Difference." But the best-known thing on the album is Travers' gutsy performance of Stan Lewis' blues classic "Boom Boom (Out Go the Lights)," which should not be confused with the John Lee Hooker favorite "Boom Boom." For Travers, "Boom Boom (Out Go the Lights)" has been a major crowd pleaser, and the version heard on this release was a staple of album rock radio in 1979 and the early '80s. ...See Full Description

| GREAT LIVE ALBUM! I concur with the other review: THE BEST live recording and show ever. Nothing compares with this album for a live peformance. Pat Thrall is probably the best unsung guitar hero out there. Mars is one of the top few bassists to ever hit the stage (re: "Hooked on Music" for a taste of his ax work... ). And Tommy Aldridge?!!! - what can you say - few have ever come close on the skins. Having been lucky to see these guys twice in '80, once as a main act, and once more three weeks later opening for Foghat (... who by the way was in their prime and who wasn't sharp enough to put a second tier act in front of them to make them look great.... Traves worked the crowd into a frenzy for which Foghat couldn't keep pace with.... .). Gotta say no other performance has ever compared: Four unbelievable musicians jelling and hitting on all cylinders at once - a very rare occurance. By capnvic (Doo-Dah (aka Wichita), KS) |
| Rocks!! I first heard this album on a beach in the middle of summer. Perfect summertime music! A fun, fast-paced live album that never really lets up. By jmf (Toronto, ON Canada)  |
| Best rockin' live labum ever. This cd kicks from start to finish. By daddo39 (Parsonsburg,Md USA)  |
| Does not get any better than this!! This CD is by far some of the best guitar work ever done. If this CD does not get your pulse rate up, than get to a hospital!! By dcj415 (Big Cove Tannery PA , USA)  |
| DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS! I've been listening to this album for a quarter century and it's still the best live recording ever. It kicks butt from start to finish. My first concert was Pat Travers in 1980, opening for Foghat. PT just blew me away. I've been "HOOKED ON MUSIC, HOOKED ON ROCK N' ROLL" ever since. By Chris (Nashville, TN) |
