Torrent description

This album has never been re-issued in CD format to my knowledge. This upload is a cleaned up REMASTER of a Vinyl to TDK D Cassette recording played back with dolby off. [Obviously a direct vinyl transfer would have been preferable but this was my only source.] The vinyl had been centralized at the time off recording which means there was no side to side movement of the tone arm. This is usually the worst flaw/giveaway of vinyl transfers as it causes any long notes to 'WOW'. Think about it. If the record is not central it is not rotating in a perfect circle (more like an oval.) It was gently re-mastered in Audacity track by track. It was then saved in WAV form and ripped at 192kbps to MP3 using Nero/Lame on the slowest/highest quality setting. See what you think.

Info on Hustler (thanks for the unauthorised borrow all concerned.)

They were hot, they were rockin' - pretty much in the same mold as Status Quo, with just a touch of Heavy Metal Kids; shame they only lasted for two albums, and shame, too, that these undeniable gems are now rare and hard to find: CD treatment way overdue!!

As this was mainly a guitar rock band, they were using keyboards (as well as orchestral arrangements) sparingly and sporadically, whenever it suited the material - honky-tonk boogie piano on some tracks, and heavy Purplesque organ on others. The result was an eclectic but lively mixture of rockers and ballads, in which Get Outa Me 'Ouse and Jack The Lad stick out like sore thumbs, they're so intrinsically British and, at the risk of being ridiculed by connoisseurs, I even dare say Cockney, since, you see, "I'm a peace lovin' bloke" but her dad says, "No daughter of mine is going out with a hippy or a scruffy little bleeder like you!" Under the circumstances, other fast-paced tracks on these two albums seem a bit more tame in comparison, but still excellent through and through.

Just like Heavy Metal Kids, Hustler were in the business of producing unapologetic, scruffy, hot, denim-clad rock. The misspelling antics carry a fine tradition started by Slade, although not quite to the same extreme.

Track 'em down if you can, they'll give you that much-needed swift kick in the trousers, better than any punk record ever could!!

A heavy rock outfit with a good reputation. High Street is very much in Free/Bad Company mould. Tracks like Just Leave A Good Man and Jack The Lad are hard rocking songs with strong melodies and good vocals and guitar work. There are some mellower moments on Let The Wind Blow and Miranda, whilst The Hustler is reasonably orchestrated. Get Outa Me 'Ouse, the only track where Micky Llewelyn sings, is in a more pub-rock direction and Piranhas has a long instrumental break with keyboard progressive overtones in a Deep Purple direction. A good example of this genre.
