5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Great Album,
By
This review is from: Crash & Burn (Audio CD)
This is by far the best Pat Travers album ever. I've had this album since college. The songs are almost voodoo blues yet mesmerizing rockers that overlap each other with depth and complexity. The album comes across as intense and dark, but much of this music is melodic and airy. My personal standout here is "Can't Be Right", but every song is fantastic. Pat Travers is a true musician who has stood the test of time. I hope he continues writing such impressive music for many more years to come.

My favorite rock album from Pat Travers,
This review is from: Crash & Burn (Audio CD)
Excellent blend of rock & blues. I feel this was Travers at his peak. Travers is not one to commonly write tunes for the radio, but this album boasted 3 solid FM-radio friendly songs with "Crash & Burn", "Snortin' Whiskey" and "Can't Be Right". "Born Under a Bad Sign" is a good cover version, while Bob Marley's "Is This Love" gets only an average review. Travers is best with his crunchy loud guitars and his deep vocals telling you a story about being down in the dumps. Is Travers a rock artist first, and then a blues man.... or vice-versa? I can't decide. Either way, he is usually singing about Dumpsville, USA. Journeyman skin pounder Tommy Aldridge (the ultimate hard rock drummer) compliments Travers' band nicely (Aldridge has a great track record playing with such bands as Black Oak Arkansas, Pat Travers Band, Ozzy, & Whitesnake). Pat Travers remains relatively unknown with a majority of the listeners. Be the envy of your next party - throw this disc on the cd player - I guarantee people will be asking who it is! A diamond in the rough.

More Burn than crash,
By Roy Scott (Wynnewood, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Crash & Burn (Audio CD)
Pat Travers is one of the most underrated guitar players, singer/songwriters in the universe. While I feel his best work was to come...the first four tracks on this CD are great and well worth the purchase.His guitar riffs are varied and show alot of range without dragging on and on like so many axe men of that era. His rough, soulful vocal style fits like a glove. The foray into jazz/rockish keyboard compositions are but a slight detour from the real strengh of PT...guitar based hard rock!! Track 8 is laughable. Thank god he came to his senses and avoided that light wieght rubbish in future recordings. Check out his "Blues Magnet" and "Halfway to Somewhere" CD's...they are the real deal!!
