notes

The Hour originally recorded "Hold Back the Reins" in the winter of 1989 at Nevessa in Woodstock, NY with Chris Andersen (Todd Rundgren, Grateful Dead). The Hour is Jon Vitarelli on drums, Marshall Madow on vocals, acoustic & electric guitars, Matt Turk on vocals, acoustic and electric guitars and Mike Mulvey on bass. The master tapes of Hold Back the Reins were exhumed from the Hour's archives after 15 years in storage. We've added a live version of "Heading for the Way Way Out" from New Orleans' Tipitina's with Jen Phelps-Montgomery on vocals representing The Hour at their electric finest in the Greenwich Village jamband scene of the late 1980's. Also added is the Hour's original demo.

Enjoy.

  • Fusion of acoustic and electric rock that evokes Santana and the Doors

    This CD takes me back to college when I used to see The Hour live in NYC and enjoy hearing them jam through these songs with obvious passion. Favorites include the rockin' "And the Reign" and "It Can't Happen Here."
