SHADES OF GREY (Myke Gray of Jagged Edge / Skin) – ”2021” *0dayrox Exclusive*
It’s been 30+ years since Jagged Edge released their sole album ‘Fuel For Your Soul’ a first and last long player before the band split. It was an album full of great songs and hinted at what might have been. Guitarist Myke Gray of course went on to form UK melodic rockers Skin and is currently focused on his SHADES OF GREY project.
While on the cover art you see a full band, on this album (only on physical CD) titled ”2021” Myke perform all vocals and instruments but drums which co-producer Pete Newdeck (Midnite City, Nitrate) handles.
The album is a great collection of songs with a classic rock / melodic rock meets glam. Myke Gray wanted to create the kind of record that he would listen when he was a kid. It has full on Glam rock tracks like ‘Wam Bam’, classic rock infused like ‘California’, while Def Leppard fans circa 1981 will go crazy with ‘Turn It Up Louder’.
Not only is this all beautifully crafted but you can just tell Gray is having an absolute ball as the hooky, slinky rhythm of the songs grabs you from the off.
Pure musical ’70s / ’80s sunshine and an antidote to these troubled times.
