Lock, Stock and Barrel (Complete Recordings 2008-2011)
Super group formed by Def Leppardās Phil Collen, Sex Pistolsā Paul Cook and Girlās Simon Laffy.Ā The complete recordings by this short lived power trio.Ā Expanded artwork features new essay by esteemed rock journalist Jerry Ewing.
Super Group? A term too often applied to bands that donāt fully live up to the expectations that such descriptions might suggest. Not so with Manraze, a genuine super group comprising of Def Leppardās Phil Collen on lead guitar and vocals, his former band-mate in NWOBHM-era glam rockers Girl, bassist Simon Laffy, and legendary Sex Pistols drummer, Paul Cook.
After selling millions of albums and singles between them, 2004 found the three Londoners joining forces to form Manraze, a modern rudeboy mixture of punk, rock and reggae. The band released the limited edition EP 'Skin Crawl' in 2005, and issued their debut album Surreal (CD1) in 2008 via VH1 Classic Records.
Surreal was released in the US and the UK to rave critical reviews, comparing the band to The Police, Foo Fighters and The Clash. On a roll, in August 2011, Manraze released their second album, the aptly titled PunkFunkRootsRock (CD2), named after a quip from Paul Cook when describing the bandās eclectic sound. The second album paid homage to their many musical influences throughout the years, and was unleashed amid high expectations that it aptly rose to.
A diabolically clever cover of Jimi Hendrixās āFireā is among a catchy and eclectic set of tunes, instant classics that permeate the album. The 12 tracks highlighted Manrazeās re-emergence into the rock/dub/soul music scene as three powerful musicians who possess the energetic prowess, aggressive live genius, and the wide ranging diversity of prototype artists like Jimi Hendrix, The Rolling Stones, U2, Nirvana, Sex Pistols, Def Leppard, and many others who have left their indelible marks on musical history.
This collection of complete recordings is fleshed out with live recordings, acoustic sets, instrumentals and various rarities. It also features new liner notes from Classic Rock journalist and Prog magazine editor, Jerry Ewing based on recent interviews with the band.
