Album DescriptionAvailable in:
Long-awaited twelfth studio album on Vanguard Records. Panic recorded Street Dogs as a band, live in the studio, for the first time.
Incorporating a vast range of styles, Panic's songs run the gamut from compelling narratives to poignant ballads to southern blues to progressive jazz and rock. Street Dogs is a testament to how a veteran band can remain vibrant, relevant and continue to progress. The folk/jazz infused "Angels Don't Sing The Blues", the flowing "Poorhouse of Positive Thinking", the boogie blues of "Street Dogs for Breakfast" and the epic New Orleans inspired "Cease Fire", with it's Radiohead-like interlude, have a swing and a swagger the runs through much of the album. Panic's rock and blues roots shine brightly on renditions Alan Price's "Sell Sell", Murray McLauchlan's "Honky Red" and Willie Dixon's "Taildragger", made famous by Howlin' Wolf.
Street Dogs was recorded at Echo Mountain Studios in Asheville, NC with long time friend and producer John Keane at the helm. Drummer Duane Trucks (Hard Working Americans), who has been performing with the band on the road since late-2014, sat in for the Street Dogs recordings. from web site)
