| | Description: | Ride The Storm is an album by Don Barnes, released in 2022. Ride The Storm includes a.o. the following tracks: ??Ride The Storm?, ??I Fall Back?, ??After The Way?, ??Johnny Ain't So Cool? and more. The album is a rock 2-CD. - WITH 3 BONUS TRACKSDigitally remastered and expanded two CD edition of the previously unreleased 1989 solo album from the 38 Special vocalist. The album includes musical assistance from Dann Huff, Alan Pasqua, Jeff and Mike Porcaro, Jesse Harms and Denny Carmassi among others. Nearly 30 years ago, what would have been an instant classic was relegated to storage thanks to the old story of record label machinations. In searching for the original masters for Ride The Storm, after being lost for two decades, Don found the only existing copy of a 'rock mix' that was commissioned back in 1989 to take a look at how the songs would sound, remixed for a bigger 'rock' impact. Ever the completist, Melodic Rock Records' Andrew McNeice insisted that both mixes of the classic album were included in the release - as well as the three individual, heavily traded, solo demo tracks that were recorded but not included on the original album. The complete Ride The Storm release is a double disc set, featuring the album in it's intended form, plus the second 'alternate mix' disc, on which the three additional bonus tracks are added at the end.Issued in a slim double jewel case with clear tray and 12-page booklet.
This album was recorded originally in 1989."Ride The Storm" on CD presents Don Barnes' melodic rock at its most powerful and emotional. Known as the voice and guitarist of southern rock institution 38 Special, Barnes delivers a collection of songs full of big hooks, expressive guitar work and soaring vocals that will immediately appeal to fans of classic AOR and American rock. The production emphasizes wide, atmospheric arrangements, sing-along choruses and a warm, organic band sound that recalls the golden era of melodic rock while still feeling fresh and immediate. Each track is crafted around strong melodies and memorable refrains, making this CD ideal both for focused listening and for repeated spins in the car or at home. The album flows harmoniously from energetic rockers to more reflective mid-tempo songs, always keeping the focus on Barnes' distinctive voice and guitar tone. The CD format offers clear, dynamic sound and is perfect for collectors who value a physical edition in their rock library.
