1. Mother
2. Humble
3. Keep On
4. Idealist Realist
5. No Sugar Tonight/New Mother Nature
6. Feel the Hurt
7. Tomorrow
8. Bow to the King
Mother is not the no-prisoners-taken heavy metal hard rock assault that Bang is. Mother heads off into something of a pop rock vein as the boys explore more than the Marshall-stack-on-max of the Bang disc. HOWEVER Mother has two songs that make the disc a worthwhile purchase for the fan of hard rock: Idealist/Realist & Keep On. Idealist/Realist maintains the Bang assault. For all I know it would have been on the Bang disc but they ran out of time (according to drummer/lyricist Tony they only had two weeks to write the entire Bang disc). On Idealist/Realist Frankie discovers the wah padal and it sounds like he is using it with a flanger. Keep On could be described as heavy funk, funk metal or maybe hard funk. Buy this disc and listen, you'll understand. Humble & Tomorrow round out the harder edged tunes. The most surprising aspect of this disc is how well Frank sings. His screaming on the Bang disc gave very little chance for Frank to showcase his voice. I listened to these bands during the 70s: Mountain, Deep Purple, Alice Cooper, Led Zep, Black Sabbath, BTO & early Rush so my hard rock pedigree is right up there with yours.
