Requested in "REQUEST & FILL CORNER" section...
Quite rare it's this only, self-titled recording by West Virginia quintet ONE EYED GYPSY which existed from 1998 to 2003. Their bio claims to have opened shows for Bad Company, Molly Hatchet, .38 Special, among other major acts.
Despite its year of release (2000), sound & style in "One Eyed Gypsy" is based in late '80s / early '90s US Melodic Hard Rock. The songs are solid and really well arranged / performed.
Favorites include opener "It Takes No Prisoners", a mid-tempo rocker with sharp riffs and a Dokken atmosphere, follower "Give It Up", a catchy melodic rock tune with a Bon Jovi feel circa 7800º Fahrenheit, and power ballad "Not Gonna Fall In Love Again" akin Warrant / Jani Lane.
Talking about the aforementioned vocalists, grand part of One Eyed Gypsy's charm belongs to Ray Whitlock's smooth vocals, a singer previously trained as member of the pretty successful country group Cry Wolf. He plays nice keyboards too, and together with guitarist Tim Kitchen (also producer) are the core of the band.

Other good cuts are the AORish mid-tempo "Waiting For You", hard rocker "In My America" with interesting lyrics about America's violent society, and "Livin' Like You Choose" blending Dokken / Bon Jovi, this time, into one song.
Released by themselves, "One Eyed Gypsy" was quite well produced by guitarist Tim Kitchen, panning some guitar tracks to one side of the stereo spectrum for good effect. Overall mix could be better to provide more tightness to some songs, but this is minor flaw.
Really nice stuff, private release, out of print.

I TRIED AND DOWNLOADED IT 3 TIMES BUT MY PC BLOCKED IT(POSSIBLE VIRUS THREAT)!! CAN YOU PLEASE FIX THE PROBLEM, OR EVEN BETTER GIVE AN ALTERNATIVE LINK?? MANY THANKS IN ADVANCE!! KEEP THE GREAT BLOG MAN YOU RULE!!
You must be using Chrome browser. Its new 'security' auto-settings are crap. It happens to me too and all users with some random files for no reason. Anyway, the download starts and continue, just click 'Show all downloads' at the right (or type Ctrl+J), then 'Recover malicious file', and then click 'Hurt me plenty" (moronic isn't it?) and the .rar it is un-blocked.
Or... better use Firefox webrowser, no issues at all.
Had the same problem with the virus threat. It blocked th download. I use firefox browser.
Camelblue why don't you use another filehost for once.

I still have one of the very first cds produced, plus some live recordings of both OEG and Cry Wolf. If I dig I may still have some stuff recorded when these songs were first being performed. Man, the memories....
