CD REVIEW: CLEARWATER by BULLFROG

CLEARWATER by Bullfrog
(Grooveyard Records)

Italian based Blues rock trio Bullfrog return with their fourth studio release, 'Clearwater'. Bullfrog is comprised of, Francesco Dalla Riva (Bass & Vocals), Silvano Zago on guitar and Michelle Dalla Riva on drums. From start to finish ''Clearwater' is absolutely mind-blowing, with the trio successfully mixing a heavy dose of blues, and soul with full-speed rock and roll. Tracks like "No Salvation" and "Too Bad For Love" manage to pack a powerful punch, while songs such as "Monster (Give Me Something Mean)" show the trio know how to kick out the jams, they can still  down shift with a laid back mover like, "Say Your Prayers" and play it just as well. Special Guest guitarist, Jimi Barbiani lends his talent the album's title track. 'Clearwater'  is an amazing album by an amazing band. There's not a week song on here! That's rare in today's music. Excellent musicians, great lyrics, you name it they got it. For anyone who has yet to indulge in the 'heavy blues rock experience,' I say have yours today with the boys of Bullfrog. It will a ride you'll never forget. One of rocks best kept secrets... is no more! Let's get the word out!!! This band rock like nobody's business!  For all those who believed that gutsy, adrenalized rock was dead, I have only one word for you: BULLFROG! - Highly Recommended
