LUCIFER’S FRIEND (John Lawton) – The Last Stand (2021)
Cherry Red Records has released “The Last Stand“, a new LUCIFER’S FRIEND album collecting together recordings from their first reunion album ‘Sumo Grip’ from 1994, along with recordings from their 2015 reunion. Compiled by guitarist Peter Hesslein, ”The Last Stand” is being released to close the book on the studio recordings of the reunion.
Lucifer’s Friend were originally in 1970 Hessle and legendary singer John Lawton. While in their origins they were pretty progressive hard rock, the material included into ”The Last Stand” is very early ’90s melodic hard rock both in sound and production, especially the songs from 1994 (listen to the video-song below)…
