CHILLIWACK – Look In Look Out (Solid Gold Canadian remastered reissue) HQ
Some weeks ago we were featuring the best album from Vancouver CHILLIWACK, and now this one was requested as well: 1984’s “Look In Look Out“, in its Canadian remastered reissue.
CHILLIWACK occupy a prominent and secure place in the history of Canadian rock’n roll. Their career was a long and fascinating one. It began in the midst of the West Coast explosion of the late ’60s, and reached its commercial peak with a string of albums and hit singles for the Solid Gold label in the early ’80s.
Previous LP’s were melodic rock / radio oriented – for “Look In Look Out”, leader & songwriter Bill Henderson opted for more radio-friendly rock & pop sound, with an extremely polished clean production.
“Look In Look Out” became the Chilliwack’s last major studio release, as Solid Gold Records went bankrupt and took the band’s fortunes along with it. A Greatest Hits package followed. Henderson’s own “When I Sing”, heard in the feature film Bye Bye Blues, won a Genie Award in 1990 for Best Original Song.
While we still prefer the melodic rocking style of Chilliwack previous LP’s, “Look In Look Out” is fine mid-Eighties album with cool songs. This remastering has a safe-zone dynamic range, not loud.
