Originally released in 1982, Black Tiger was the album with which San Francisco rockers Y&T followed their astonishing Earthshaker opus and, though not quite in the same class as its predecessor (what could be...?), the album has much to recommend it. tracks like 'Open Fire and the barnstorming Forever remain crowd pleasers to this day. Nobody who was there could possibly forget the band s fantastic performance at a seriously dangerously over crowded Marquee club in London s soho district in support of this album. Available here for the first time on CD in Europe in a digitally remastered form, now would be a good time to pick up on one of the best albums of the early 80 s
