Product Description

CD Description

British glam-rock kings Mud, famed for hits like "Tiger Feet", made a break from their beginnings with their fifth album, USE YOUR IMAGINATION. It found the band embracing a heavier guitar attack (on some tracks) than that of their earlierrecordings. It also found them looking beyond the famed Mike Chapman/Nicky Chinn team for material. A transitional album, it's a curious, interesting beast, flitting between zippy, hard-charging glam rock, contemporary MOR pop, and '50s rock & roll pastiche.

3.0 out of 5 stars MUD - USE YOUR IMAGINATION, 3 Oct 2007
By Tony Marsden "Tony Marsden" (Edmonton, London N18) - See all my reviews
"Mud's declaration of Independence". In July 1975 Mud were on their own, having split from both the RAK label and writer/producers Mike Chapman and Nicky Chinn. "Use Your Imagination", the first of two albums recorded by Mud for the shortlived Private Stock label, was issued in Britain on 5th December 1975 and trailered by two British top ten singles.

Notably, "Use Your Imagination" was the first real showcase for the group's original material, with writing now focussed on guitarist Rob Davis and bassist Ray Stiles, who furnished five of the songs. Some of these (notably the first extracted single, "L'L'Lucy") followed the blueprint of their early RAK hits, as did "Hair of the Dog", a contribution co-written by the group's late, great drummer, Dave Mount. Former Sweet producer Phil Wainman supervised the recordings and also co-wrote three songs including the Presleyesque "She's Got The Devil In Her Eyes" and another hit single, the ballad "Show Me You're A Woman". A more sophisticated approach (akin to 10cc and the Isleys) was apparent on the title track, which featured Ray on lead vocals. In typical Mud style, a couple of oldies were given a revamped treatment - a reggae, comical version of the Everly Brothers' "Bird Dog" and a cover of "Under The Moon Of Love" (pre-Showaddywaddy by twelve months and possibly a missed single for Mud).

The reissued CD also contains the B-sides to the two singles ("My Love Is Your Love" had also been issued as a disco single by Ellie) and the booklet contains the lyrics supplied on the original inner sleeve.

A good, if slightly flawed, recording.

Really enjoyed this album. Favourites are L'L'Lucy, Show me You're a woman and Bird Dog - I could listen to that song all night!! I would recommend this album to any Mud fan - it's a must to have in the collection
