| | Description: | Y&Tâ??s previous album Earthshaker had revitalised this highly respected San Francisco based quartetâ??s fortunes, appearing almost by stealth after years of what appeared to be complete inactivity. Signed to a new label and attracting fresh interest from various corners, Y&T quickly capitalised on their fortunes by moving their base of operation to the UK for the follow-up album â??Black Tigerâ??. Almost unbeknownst to the band, the UK and Europe had earlier on embraced the band as one of their own. It was an appreciation born out of a revived interest in hard rock, fuelled by the emergence of the NWOBHM.
Recorded in the Sussex countryside and produced by acclaimed British producer Max Norman (Ozzy Osbourne, Coney Hatch, Malice) Black Tiger was a triumphant statement of intent, complimenting and, in many respects, eclipsing the achievement of the previous yearâ??s Earthshaker album. Having established a solid template the album saw them looking for more melodic possibilities but not compromising their muscular style. It was triumphant statement and one not lost on their burgeoning European fan base. In fact, during the recording sessions, the band embarked on a triumphant sold out UK and European tour that included two nights at Londonâ??s Marquee club and a high-ranking support slot at that yearâ??s Reading Festival. Black Tiger, issued in 1982, is now regarded as one of, if not the definitive Y&T album, showcasing a number of tracks that are regarded as classics such as â??Open Fireâ??, â??My Way Or The Highwayâ??, â??Hell Or High Waterâ??, and the title track itself. It also contains the epic â??Foreverâ??, another gold standard ballad in the classic Y&T canon.
