WAYSTED Save Your Prayers +3 [Cherry Red / Hear No Evil remaster]

With the just released WAYSTED box-set some of you asked for the also Cherry Red Records / Hear No Evil remastered release of the band’s more Melodic Hard Rock oriented album, the pretty awesome “Save Your Prayers“, including as bonus tracks 3 hard to find singles for the first time on CD.
Pete Way was the original bass guitarist and founder member of British hard rockers UFO. In 1982, after making 10 studio LPs with them, Pete left, initially to play bass with Ozzy Osbourne as well as briefly forming Fastway with Motorhead’s Fast Eddie Clarke.
Then in 1983 he formed Waysted. After releasing their debut album ‘Vices’ in 1983 on Chrysalis, before switching to Music For Nations for the release of ‘Waysted’ (1984) and ‘The Good The Bad And The Waysted’ (1985), the band signed to EMI / Parlophone label in 1985 for this “Save Your Prayers“ LP.
It was the mid-Eighties and the recording label wanted a more commercial, catchy musical approach according to times to appeal the US market…

TYKETTO – We’ve Got Tomorrow We’ve Got Tonight +1

While TYKETTO recorded some live material in the past, most of these were acoustic. Original members Danny Vaughn (lead vocals) and Michael Clayton (drums) wanted to do something for the TYKETTO legacy.
They got backing vocalists, a horn section and a string section and they ended having a 14-piece band to record “We’ve Got Tomorrow We’ve Got Tonight +1“, a CD / DVD recorded live into the studio. In June 2018, they headed off to the lovely town of Pontypridd, Wales, to produce this very special concert and live video event. The goal was to mix things up with radically different versions of your favorite Tyketto tunes that span their entire career.
And TYKETTO delivers a stupendous set with emotional performances. It’s captured live however the result sound is studio quality, with Vaughn vocals in pristine form. “We’ve Got Tomorrow We’ve Got Tonight +1” is like a complete circle, as there’s as well the very first recording / demo of their classic “Forever Young”.
