REDS STRIKES THE BLUES - A Tribute To The Red Skins:
by Steve DIY


There´s been so many naff tributes to bands that haven´t really been up to scratch but not this one. If one band deserves a tribute it´s the Redskins as they were a wicked band in the 80´s. There´s some wicked tributes on here by the likes of Peasant Army, The Three Johns, Maninblack, The Yell Leaders and Negu Gorriak. Ok so they might not be as good as the original versions but it´s great to hear bands who make an effort with cover versions. 18 tracks in all with ace songs like ´Red Strikes The Blues´, ´Keep On Keepin´ On´ and ´Unionize´ covered. Production and packaging is second to none. Some great sleeve notes on here too! The guy who put this together deserves a few beers and a pat on the back. (Red Star) 9/10
