DESCRIPTION:" 'Allo\, music lovers..."It's early 1979\, and the Pat Trave
 rs Band have just been introduced and subsequently recorded for what wou
 ld become one of the slickest and hottest guitar-rock albums ever commit
 ted to vinyl. 'Live! Go for What You Know' was a huge success on both si
 des of the pond\, acclaimed by their musical peers\, fans\, and music cr
 itics alike. It was high-energy. It was electric. It was lightning in a 
 bottle. The album\, much like the Canadian musician himself\, remains an
  influence for a whole generation of guitar slingers.The band in questio
 n - Pat Travers\, guitarist Pat Thrall\, drummer Tommy Aldridge and bass
  player Peter "Mars" Cowling - were unarguably one of the most talented 
 rock quartets ever to perform. They were also responsible for a pair of 
 bona fide studio classics - their 1978 guitar rock debut 'Heat in the St
 reet'\, and 1980's more musically diverse and critically acclaimed 'Cras
 h and Burn'. 'Go for What You Know' was the musical meat in that sonic s
 andwich.Thrall's fusion was the perfect foil for Travers\, who has alway
 s put the melodic tone and 'feel' of his solos before any fret burning. 
 Aldridge was one of the most noted and flamboyant sticksmen of the era. 
 Cowling was the inspiration\, driving the rhythm through his ever solid\
 , yet extremely flexible\, four-string work.Toronto born Patrick Henry T
 ravers had already delivered a tasty trio of releases before the formati
 on of that formidable four-piece\, and would go on to deliver classy mel
 odic eighties rock before a blues period in the nineties\, but it's that
  famous foursome that set standards\, kicked your ass\, and made such a 
 musical mark."My name is Pat Travers\, and this is my band..."It's early
  2009\, and the Pat Travers Band have just been recorded live by Rocklin
 e Radio. On playback\, Rockline's Bob Coburn turns to bass player Rodney
  O'Quinn and comments: "I think we caught lightning in a bottle tonight.
 " To have that happen once in a career is special. To repeat that feat t
 hirty years later may be unique.From the streets of Toronto\, to the str
 eets of London\, now\, here to kick your ass... The Pat Travers Band.
