The Tale of the Tape

Descripción

En 1980 Billy Squier lanza su primer disco en solitario, The Tale of the Tape. En éste debut, Billy demuestra una vez más su talento a la hora de componer. Grandes canciones de Rock y Hard Rock como “The Big Beat” y “Rich Kid”, enérgicas y melódicas. Y añadiendo retazos de PowerPop a su coctelera. Muy bien ejecutadas y demostrando que el protagonista está dotado de una gran voz.
