EAT ME IN ST. LOUIS

I regret never having seen It Bites play live. The closest I ever came to hearing them in a concert setting was when I was at a Dan Reed Network concert in the Glasgow Barrowlands. During the period when the crowd were awaiting DRN someone was blasting another bands album over the PA. My mate informed me it was a band called It Bites and it was the album 'Eat me in St. Louis'. I was VERY impressed. I obviously bought it at the earliest opportunity. It is full of excellent tracks and even featured some production by Steve Hillage, a hero of mine. My version of the CD featured the prog-pop classic 'Calling all the heroes'. 'All in Red' and 'Kiss like Judas' were also excellent slabs of pure energy and superb musicianship. This album might surprise a few of you and encourage you to discover for yourself just how good this band were.
