CHERRY St. – Squeeze It Dry [Perris Records reissue 2022] *HQ*
After many years out of print, Perris Records is reissuing CHERRY St. 1993’s album “Squeeze It Dry” on CD with a new cover art, a killer glammy hard rock record full of catchy hooks.
While released too late for this genre via a small record label, the CD was manufactured & distributed by major BMG, with tracks produced by Erik Turner (Warrant) and Tommy Thayer (Kiss, Black N’ Blue), mastered & mixed by Pat Regan (Mr. Big) – who also produced some songs – so expect a very good sound here.
CHERRY St. vocalist Roxy Dahl (later known as Chris VanDahl) sang on LA Gums ‘American Hardcore’ album, so we are talking about competent personnel here for classic US glammy hard rock with catchy choruses.
The sound / gain output of this reissue is far better than the original (impossible to find) CD release, kinda ‘remastered’…
