Brighton Rock - Hangin' High 'N' Dry

[rfreiman]

Great band. In college I drove to Canada to see them play.  Thought it would be in an arena - it was in a tiny bar. I was bummed for them (I thought they had to be huge), psyched for me (sat right in front of them and talked with the band after the show).

This is good music.

[Voiceinthewoods]

I remember when they played this new on much music.While everyone else was watching mtv i was listening to bands not many heard of.Brighton Rock one of my favorite bands.

[TheCozybear65]

saw them open for Boston

[WingitMan27]

These guys are fucking brutal along with The Bullet boys. Long live the metal of the 80s.

[Freyja1133]

Brighton Rock Hair metal,or traditional metal?

[horsetype]

I agree with 0firehouse0, this music and most 80`s music blows away anything from today...

[dreamingsky65]

FANTASTIC song...my favourite together with "change of heart": could someone post it please??

[trevchar]

Saw these guys open for Triumph on the Sport of kings tour. Brings back memories

[DutchFord86]

Somewhere they remind me of Journey. Great band anyway :)

[0FireHouse0]

Great song! Too bad nobody accept this kind of music anymore... or at least not enought to make MTV play this music!!!

[BridgitW]

I saw these guys at a retirement gig in toronto....can't remember what bar. But Russian Blue opened for them. Was great show by both bands. Maybe the opera house.

[agltg70]

love this album still got it on vinyl under my bed might dust it off tomorrow and crank it up

[RockerGrrrrl74]

Can someone please post Young Wild and Free???

[13Bina13]

LMAO...LOVE the air dum solo dad it was fantastic!! hahahaha

[TheTrueFortress]

What I wouldn't do to travel back to the late-80s and once again see this band in its prime. One of the gigs I did attend took place on a snowy night in Toronto. The weather was so bad, in fact, hardly anyone showed up. But I was there, and Brighton Rock jammed several songs (this was supporting Love Machine) in typical enthusiastic style. Wicked.

[willthethrill77]

It's not a bad song but playing an E minor solo phrase over E major chords is not so good. Dude can play, I'm just being nitpicky.

[zangman70]

Are you kidding!!! Did you really write that and expect people to say,"Yeah man! You're right". Wow...no life for you.

[chancesdad]

Ha ha ha. Good one...

[whitelion2626]

Love this tune.....miss those days thats for sure

[mybasshas7strings]

That's awesome, I remember opening for these guys, some cabaret, somewhere in Canada, playing bass in some big haired band I was in, I must have been 17 or 18 at the most, not even old enough to be in a bar. Between all the hairspray, the cigarette smoke, and the gals with cheap perfume, it's all a bit hazy, lost a lot of memories of those days from the CFC's in the hairspray tins I think. lol Damn, Lado guitars and big hair babes, the 80's music business was wicked! Bring it back. :-)

[80svanhalen80s]

hey mybasshas7strings it sounds like it would have been a great time to be young i wish i could have been there keep on rocking with your musical talents

[ultimatestuff]

johnny left me hang high and dry

[electricland]

YOU TUBE is the place to re-live days gone by.

Thanks.

[metal220]

@electricland right on....wish mtv would realse a headbangers ball box set from the good ol days

[detso]

UNBELIVABLE!!!! I just can't believe i found that on youtube......Am I dreaming ??? or maybe in a deep nightmare ???

[ryankbolton1977]

i suddenly feel very old

[jmacgirl1]

Do they still play together?

[mightywibble]

they did a 2006 reunion tour to promote there new album

[mimseminars]

This band was the real deal - they got screwed by the record company ... Last kick ass concert summer of 92 on the Danforth.... Rock On! Reunion Time Boys!

[hotdrummer07]

Don't really know which album is better; Young Wild & Free, Take A Deep Breath, or Love Machine. I have and love them all. Still listen to them all the time too! From Fredericton, N.B. Canada!

[gtrefghuk]

All their albums are awesome. You can listen to all of them from start to finish and like every song. That's unheard of nowadays, even back when it was unheard of.

[hotdrummer07]

I partied with these guys twice in Fredericton, N.B. Miss this band sooo bad, they rock better than this new fuckin crap. I got my pics taken with them too, thanx, BR

[dudefrombarrie]

Cool, thanks for the info. I went to the website but it only opened up a couple of pics. Is it under construc?

[dudefrombarrie]

The keyboard player used to play for a band called Rogers as their guitarist. Good player. If your listening, do you remember the Clifton in Barrie? Good Times!

[johnnaro]

Roger now playes with my dad in an acoustic duo. Check out the website. thephilandjohnshow

[cheesey67]

i remember seeing Rogers in 1984 at the Doctors hotel in Belleville Ontario. Johnny stood on a chair at our table and did the tapping part for eruption. Man how'd he get stuck on keys???

[dudefrombarrie]

very cool, saw them in Orillia, Ontario loooong time ago.  Great sound.
