Das Debütalbum der Band Baton Rouge aus Louisiana von 1990 ist so etwas wie ein melodisches Metal-Meisterwerk, das wieder einmal durch den Grunge-Wahn der frühen 90er Jahre verdrängt wurde.
Produziert von dem frühen Bon Jovi-Kollaborateur Jack Ponti, bot »Shake Your Soul « mit dem Gitarristen und Leadsänger Kelly Keeling (Michael Schenker Group, Trans-Siberian Orchestra) und Lead-Gitarrist/Sänger Lance Bulen (Kingbaby, Puzzle Gut), die (zusammen mit Ponti und Produzent Vic Pepe so eingängige Highlights wie »Doctor«, »Young Hearts« und »Walks Like a Woman« erstmals die Gelegenheit, in dieser Form zusammenzuarbeiten.
1990 WAS FAST becoming a crucial time for traditional hard rock music. Although the tide hadn’t entirely turned there was a feeling amongst the music media that times were due for a change. It was an odd time as a number of great bands had been signed and were all readying albums for release so the competition was fierce. They would not be disappointed and found a manager who hooked them up with seasoned producers David Foster and Mike Clink (Clink was finishing up the Guns N’ Roses ‘Appetite…’ album) who helped them record a set of impressive demos.
The band’s appearances on the LA club circuit soon attracted record company attention, eventually signing with Atlantic records and being taken under the wing of label founder Ahmet Ertigun. ‘Shake Sour Soul’ was produced by Bon Jovi alumni Jack Ponti in New Jersey, and issued in 1990 to positive reactions.
The album hit hard in the melodic rock style, boasting strong tracks such as ‘Walks Like A Woman’, ‘Bad Time Comin’ Down’ and ‘Baby’s So Cool’. It wasn’t surprising that reaction was favourable, affording the band a good following with solid airplay, and establishing them as ones to watchn
