Silvertones
Silver Bullets
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

2018 Remastered Reissue, Pressed On Clear Vinyl With Light Blue Surrounding The Center (Presumably Meant To Resemble The Sky In The Album Artwork). Includes Custom Obi-Style Strip, Printed Lyric Sheet And Art Print By London Based Illustrator And Artist Kit Agar. Part Of The Vinyl Me, Please Essentials Series. "The Silvertones' Only LP Release Was 1973's Silver Bullets, Produced By Lee Perry -- Who Had Virtually Debuted As A Vocal-Group Producer In 1968 With This Delroy Denton-led Combo. Although It Has A Few Too Many American R&b Covers For Its Own Good (Especially Considering Both Denton And Perry Were Strong Writers), The Silvertones' Performances Definitely Justify The Full-Length Release. With One Notable Exception (The Bubblegum Toss-Off "Sugar, Sugar"), The Covers Are Well-chosen, Including The Drifters' "I'll Take You Home," Ben E. King's "That's When It Hurts," And Jerry Butler's "He Will Break Your Heart" (For The Latter, The Group Even Tries To Approximate Butler's Low Growl). The Originals Are Far Better, Including Denton's "Early In The Morning" And "Soul Sister" And Perry's "Rejoice Jah Jah Children"." AMG Review By John Bush.
