James Gang Rides Again
(alternatively known as simply Rides Again)
is the second
studio album
by American
Rock band
The James Gang
The album was
released on the label
ABC Records.
It is
the James Gang's
first album
to feature
bassist
Dale Peters.
Critical Reception
Writing for AllMusic,
critic
Stephen Thomas Erlewine
wrote of the album
"With their second album
Rides Again,
the James Gang
came into their own...
Walsh's songwriting
had improved,
giving the band
solid support
for their
stylistic experiments.
What ties the two sides
of the record together
is the strength
of the band's
musicianship,
which
burns brightly
and powerfully
on the hardest rockers,
as well as on
the sensitive ballads."
Music critic
John Swenson
named it
"one of the most important
rock records of the Seventies."

** On the initial pressings of
James Gang Rides Again,
a 1:25 electric rendition
of Maurice Ravel's
"Boléro"
is interpolated
into the song
"The Bomber."
Ravel's estate
threatened suit against
both the James Gang
and
ABC Records
for its unauthorized use.
As a result,
the track was edited,
and the
"Boléro"
section was
removed on
most subsequent
pressings of the album.
The edited song's
running time on
such pressings
is 5:39.
Some late
1970s LP
pressings
included
"Boléro"
by mistake,
and the most recent
CD re-issue
of
Rides Again
contains the
full version
of
"The Bomber,"
with the
"Boléro"
section restored.
THIS HAS IT !!!
