Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
If Dave Davies did nothing more than create the slash-and-burn power chords of the Kinks' "You Really Got Me", he'd still earn a place in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. As it is, the younger Davies brother has accomplished much more. Bug, his first studio album in over 20 years finds Ray's frequently overshadowed sibling reviving that rather charming 70s device: the concept album--the plot here revolving around extraterrestrial visitation and brain implantation. Davies brings the idea of benign aliens a little closer in a collection that recalls some of the best trends of the 60s and 70s. He uses a rock template that harks back to post-Tommy Who ("The Lie"), Mott the Hoople ("Whose Fooling Who") and Deep Purple ("It Ain't over Till It's Done"), sounding rather anachronistic as a result. The songs are engaging and show Davies to be a writer of considerable skill and wit, but they're somewhat stuck in the way-back machine. --Jaan Uhelszki
Album Description
Bug is one of the most important releases ever by Angel Air Records. In our seven years of existance we have released around 180 albums and as with all of our releases they are a labour of love. However with Bug we have not only a great AOR album but also three live bonus tracks Death Of A Clown, Susannahs Still Alive, Dead End Street, which in some reviewers opinions are worth the price of the CD alone!

Listen to the track The Lie and experience one of the greatest songs written with some incredible guitar playing . Dave Davies should be heard by everyone
