Hot City - The 1974 Unreleased Album

In 1974, the Sensational Alex Harvey Band went into the recording studios with legendary US producer: Shel Talmy (The Who/The Kinks) to record their biggest album to date. When the sessions were finished and album was mixed, the band and management amazingly decided to scrap the entire album and Talmy returned to Los Angeles with his master tapes.

The songs were later re-recorded and showed up on the album 'The Impossible Dream' later that year with another producer and the songs dramatically changed. You can now hear how the album sounded and SAHB fans will be totally surprised and amazed at the different styles, delivery and lyric arrangements of well known SAHB songs: Vambo, Man In The Jar, Anthem and Tomahawk Kid. There is also previously Unreleased song 'Ace In The Hole' which has not been heard even by the band, since those studio sessions in 1974.

After 34 years, MLP have re-discovered the fully mixed unreleased album by a rock group on the verge of stardom. Re-mastered and with the band's full approval, This CD features 9 tracks in a deluxe Digi Pack Sleeve which includes a separate Inner Sleeve and a 20 page booklet with rare photos and extensive liner notes from the band who give track/track comments and opinions. A must-have CD for any fan of the Alex Harvey Band"
