BLUEWORLD - Blue World (1993)

Requested in "Request & Fill Corner" section...

BLUEWORLD was formed in Texas by guitarist Todd Frizzell. His greatest influence was his brother Chuck who showed him his first guitar licks.
Frizzell was a member of Bedrock, Eight-Up, The Daze and now plays in Van Gogh's Ear.

BLUEWORLD recorded their self-titled album privately, produced & released through their own label.
This CD is a true rarity, but I used to hate it.
Requested by a reader, and now listening to it, it's not that bad. The big problem is the poor production and particularly, the hit 'n' miss mixing.
Anyway, you can find some good songs here. Their style is Melodic Hard Rock influenced by classic bands.

"What Goes Round" is a good melodic rocker with a cool chorus, "I Don't Believe" rocks in the Dokken style (but more melodic) and "Soldier Blue" has some Led Zeppelin hints.
"No Man" is a cool acoustic / electric midtempo that reminds me a second hand Tesla, while on "Certainly (I Will Be There)" the riff and song structure are similar to White Lion.

As said, a rarity, ripped as requested @ 320K including full artwork.
