Get Tough: The Best Of The Del-Lords
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
A godsend for devotees of gritty 1980s rock & roll that straddled the great divide between the decade's commercial radio rock (best exemplified by Bruce Springsteen) and its post-punk college-radio antagonists, Get Tough salvages the six-year career of one of the era's superior club acts. The Del-Lords were masterminded by ex-Dictator Scott Kempner, who explored his less sardonic side with his second recording outfit. The Lords leaned hard toward concrete-solid rhythms, classic guitar lines, and street-smart songs delivered with no-nonsense fortitude by Kempner, second guitarist Eric Ambel, and, occasionally, bassist Manny Caiati and drummer Frank Funaro. This overdue anthology includes 16 selections culled from the East Coast rockers' four studio albums and tosses in a couple of previously unreleased tracks (including a cover of "Folsom Prison Blues") for good measure. Tough stuff. --Steven Stolder
