Burning Rain Appreciation Thread...

[T-BONE]

I Dug out my old Burning Rain CD's the other day after listening to the new Whitesnake for a few spins. I got on a Doug Aldrich kick for some reason. Listening to the 2 Burning Rain CD's I can see a very heavy Whitesnake/Lynch Mob combo going on. Aldrich definatly has a good grasp of the Lynch/Sykes sound and vocalist Keith St. John's style has alot of Coverdale/Jorne Lande mixed with Robert Mason/Oni Logan.

Oh yeah these are great cds. I love them both.

I still prefer Bad Moon Rising and Lion but Burning Rain was awesome too.

I swore I read sometime last year that Doug and Keith were gonna do another album, but I'm sure with Doug's duties in Whitesnake he doesn't have much time.

[Dead Planet]

Both CDs are well worth tracking down....excellent hard rock....

I'm admittedly not the hugest fan, but I've never thought about selling these two CDs and never will. Good consistent stuff. I actually had the 4 ballads off both albums on my Ipod but I think I took them all off when I edited it.

I''d love to see another burning rain cd out, perhaps the guys can put out the leftovers from the recording sessions

[Dave]

This was and still is my thoughts on the two Burning Rain releases and even though I think Pleasure To Burn is far superior to the first album, that one I still really like too

Much better than the first album."Faithfully Yours" is the best song they have done and add to that ,Love Emotion , Love De Jour [which sounds like The Cult , even the vocals} and Judgement Day and you have a much more consistent album than the first one.Great stuff !!!

Well, I stand corrected. I'm listening to a lot of my old CDs at the moment to see what's a keeper and what's not, and to be honest these two are both going, without any concern from me.

 

I still like the 2 ballads on each disc, with 'Faithfully Yours' still being the best, but the songs aren't that good and the rest, imo, are just such blatant fillers. Aldrich is riffing like a monster on these CDs, but the actual songs are all so similar and hookless. Like Wes said, I prefer Lion by 100% and the first two Bad Moon Rising discs also slaughter this.

I still do prefer Lion and BMR but both of these discs are great too IMO.

I think I just prefer Kal Swan's vocals over Keith St. Johns, but I dig his voice too.
