The Firm – Mean Business

The Beam Me Up Scotty’s Series, Part 10/25 (LP)

Can you believe I found this for $2? We get: Jimmy Page, Paul Rodgers, Tony Franklin, and Chris Slade. Whoa. It’s bluesy, it rocks, and it’s beautiful too. It’s thought-provoking (Live In Peace), and very lifting (Spirit Of Love). Some online complain about listless playing (Page, drugs), but I didn’t notice an issue.

Supergroups can be dodgy things, but this one nails it. Many say the first is better, I’ll find out soon. But I quite liked this one.
