One False Move

描述

Of all the Canadian melodic rock bands that failed to make a global impression, Harlequin must surely rank as one of the most talented. With a rich, confident sound and songs that delivered both muscle and melody, they took their position in a marketplace eager to embrace tunes supported by solid riffs, razor sharp guitar work and pedal-to-the-metal energy. Harlequin, it must be said, was a great band operating at the best of times. One False Move, originally released in 1982, is a consummate melodic rock album, full of vim, vigour, and all things nice. Above all else, it is the quality of their songs that elevates it to classic status. Think Loverboy, April Wine, Streetheart and Sheriff all wrapped up in one glorious bundle of fun, with talent to burn and hearts to break. Thoroughly recommended.
