MOTHER’S ARMY – The Complete Discography [3CD box-set remastered]

As requested, here’s “The Complete Discography“, the 3CD box-set including trio of albums from the sorely underrated Hard Rock super-group MOTHER’S ARMY, digitally remastered and released in America for the first time.
Mother’s Army was the brainchild of top class songwriter / bassist Bob Daisley and former Night Ranger guitarist Jeff Watson, a ’90s melodic hard rock outfit rounded out by the reliable talents of Joe Lynn Turner on vocals and Carmine Appice on drums (Aynsley Dunbar is recruited for album # 3).
Playing with huge names and top experience, Mother’s Army released three complete albums in all over the decade; self-titled ‘Mother’s Army (1993)’, ‘Planet Earth (1997)’ and ‘Fire On The Moon (1998)’, all showcasing varied songs and great musicianship. Blending the talents of Daisley and stupendous Appice, it’s hard to top the essential fusion that sets the base of the band. With hard guitar riffs & virtuoso solos from Watson and the soaring vocals from Turner, the music sounds straight from the ’70s/’80s, the real glory-days for arena rock.
ALL 3 albums were never officially released ever in the USA until this box-set – this type of rock wasn’t fashionable in America during that decade – but fortunately the Japanese marked embraced Mother’s Army’s music with open arms
