User Album Review
Just listen to this album once and you'll be stunned at how good it is. DUST is the 1971 debut for this visionary U.S. group. Visionary & stupendous you may ask? Drummer Mark Bell would soon change his name to Marky Ramone & help found the Ramones. Bassist Kenny Aaronson would later play with Neil & Jan in Schon, Hammer & Aaronson. He would also later guest on Blue Oyster Cult albums. And guitarist Richie Wise, along w/producer Kenny Kerner, would go on to produce the first two Kiss records. These guys had so much talent & ability that the world wasn't ready for them!
This album is major league boot stompin'! 'Loose Goose' is an instrumental showcasing Aaronson's truly gifted bass playing. 'Love Me Hard' cranks; Richie Wise displays a smooth vocal delivery on 'L.M.H.' which is great, especially when so many metal vocalists either just shriek or shout all the way through an album. Wise uses his voice as a sort of counter-instrument throughout the record, so Dust's 3 man lineup gains some extra depth. 'Chasin' Ladies' and 'Stone Woman' are whiskey-drenched rockers.
The magnificent ode to sex, 'From A Dry Camel', is a 7+ minute bombast displaying all 3 Dust-ians at the peak of their superlative skills. 'From A Dry Camel' made the list of Top Ten Heavy Metal songs EVER in the original ROCK BOOK OF LISTS, and you owe it to yourself to hear why.
If someone told you that Kiss, and the Ramones shared similar origins, and that those 2 groups shared strong musical ties with Neil Schon, and BOC, you just might think they were nuts, and that such an idea is preposterous. However, it's the truth, and that truth is Dust - 3 extraordinarily talented musicians who meld their skills together tightly & fabulously in playing high energy music. And this is just their first record - HARD ATTACK, their second, is even better.
