About the album On The Boards:
On The Boards is the second studio album released by the Irish rock trio Taste. The album was released in 1970, and it is often considered to be one of the band's finest moments.
The album opens with the dynamic and fast-paced track 'What's Going On', which sets the tone for the rest of the album. Led by the fiery guitar playing of Rory Gallagher, the track features explosive drumming and a driving bassline. The energy of the opening track is sustained through the entire album, making it an exhilarating listen from start to finish.
One of the standout tracks on the album is 'Gamblin' Blues', a bluesy number that showcases Gallagher's exceptional guitar skills. The track features a hypnotic guitar riff and a memorable vocal performance from Gallagher.
Another highlight of the album is 'Railway and Gun', which features a catchy melody and some impressive guitar solos. The track also features some interesting time changes that keep the listener engaged throughout.
The album also features a cover of 'Morning Sun', a song originally recorded by British folk rock band Fairport Convention. Taste's version of the song features a stripped-down arrangement that highlights the band's raw and powerful sound.
Overall, On The Boards is a fantastic album that showcases the exceptional musicianship of Rory Gallagher and his bandmates. The album's high energy and impressive guitar work make it a must-listen for fans of classic rock and blues.
