Are you ready for a musical experience that’s like stepping into a whirlwind mix of Saturday morning cartoons and a headbanger’s paradise? Look no further than “Under the purple light” by Rich Kid Express, a one-man musical circus driven by a fervor for infectious and exhilarating rock ‘n’ roll. At the heart of this beautiful musical journey is Rob Richardson himself, the visionary creator behind the music. He assumes the roles of writer, performer, recording engineer, and mixer, making “Under the purple light” a solo recording project that’s an electrifying rollercoaster ride through a spectrum of rock influences. My favorite so far is Hard Time Lady. Hope you also enjoy it as much as I did.
When you dive into “Under the purple light,” you’re met with a sonic tapestry that conjures the spirits of KISS, Sweet, AC/DC, Joan Jett, and even a dash of the iconic mockumentary band, Spinal Tap. It’s a fusion of 70’s glam and glitter rock, mingled with the arena-sized power of classic rock and a sprinkle of metal. Here, there’s no grand reinvention of rock styles; instead, you’re treated to pure, unadulterated rock ‘n’ roll that pairs perfectly with a cold beer in hand.
Rich Kid Express album “Under the purple light” unfolds as a captivating exploration of diverse rock styles and thematic messages. “U NEVER…” immerses listeners in a captivating blend of Alice Cooper’s theatricality and Judas Priest’s electrifying energy from the “TURBO” era. “HARD TIME LADY” catapults us back to the raw, early days of KISS, delivering a head-banging anthem reminiscent of “The Sweet.” “MR. SPIFFSTER” injects the Rich Kid Express’s signature twist into the spirit of The Knack’s “My Sharona,” crafting an ’80s power pop gem. “THAT’S THE WAY” transports us to the glamorous rock of the ’70s, channeling the vibes of T-Rex, Slade, and Sweet, all with a modern twist. Finally, “THE DOTTED LINE” serves up a straight-up ’80s rocker that spins the tale of a rock star who may have lost his edge, providing a fun and energetic auditory journey through various epochs of rock and roll.
“Under the purple light” is not just an album; it’s a musical odyssey that manages to be both refreshingly unique and steadfastly anchored in the roots of rock ‘n’ roll. It’s a celebration of catchy melodies, good times, and the very essence of rock music.
