415 - Boys Night Out CD (US IMPORT!)

Here we have the 2nd album from 415 titled "Boys Night Out". This album was produced by Gregg Rolie from Santana and Journey. Again, this band features the amazing lead vocals from Eric Martin (pre-Mr. Big) and guitars from John Nymann (pre-Y&T). Keyboardist Dave Jacobsen would later go onto tour with UFO. The "Boys Night Out" album was recorded in August of 1981 at Fantasy Studios (Same studio Journey recorded their album "Escape"). This was to be the band's sophomore album after "Area Code 415".

The album "Boys Night Out" starts out with the title track where the ambiance has you in a bar setting ready to hear a band belt out a great tune, and that is exactly what you get. Track 2 (Just Too Late) is a super catchy song that you can't help but listen to it over and over... Yes, it's that good. Track 3 (Two For The Road), the band gives you a bluesy number that shows how divers this band can be as they do the bluesy tracks as good or better than anyone. Track 4 is the original version of the song "Love Me" that was a hit for the band on their major label debut album "Sucker For A Pretty Face". John and Eric have both expressed how much they love this original version of the song and how this version really showcases the emotion this song really has. Track 5 (Paris) just might be the catchiest song Eric Martin has ever written. Track 6 (Got Another Girl) is an upbeat song with a great beat and some catchy lyrics and perfect amount of keys. Track 7 (City Screamed) comes in with some catchy keys and a nice little riff. The chorus starts out with some great backing vocals and then Eric sings a lead over the top that takes the song to a new level. Track 8 (Extra Extra) has some great lyrics with a super catchy chorus. This tune is one of the band's all-time favorites. The closing track (9) "All In The Wind" starts out slowly and smooth but picks up in spots. This is a song that is quite beautiful in both music and lyrics. Great way to end the album.

For fans of: Journey, Mr. Big, Night Ranger.
