Pat Travers used to be one of my 70s heroes. I remember buying "Making Magic" back in 1977 and loving every song on it.

The next one, "Putting It Straight" and the live album "Go For What You Know" are both damn good. I would not know about the later albums you'll have to check them out. But the albums I mentioned are smoking!

 

[Death Animal]

Hope I can find them anywere.

The tech at a local guitar shop(his name's Rex) by my house apparently played guitar with Pat Travers for a while...

Go for what you know is awesome! One of the greatest live i've ever heard...The exchanges between Travers and Thrall are amazing!!! Cowling on bass and Aldridge on drums are a famous rhythm section...i listen that album very regularly again today...I get also Crash and Burn(album) with the classic Snortin'Whiskey! The Bob Marley's cover Is This love is very good if you like the kind.... And a few experiment on that album also... and finally,RadioActive is a good album too with My life is on the line and a few rocks but i like less that album... Nothing's comparable with Go for what you know and the opener Hooked on Music...:Smokin: Just a few more informations for you!

Unfortunately, most of Traver's albums are out of print. Just the few popular ones are readily available. But he has a friend who produced cd copies of his more obscure albums and he sells them on ebay. That's the place to look. I picked up Hot Shot and Black Pearl there last year.

I'm looking for a title from The Pat Travers Band??? You know it's a bluesy song for the most part and it's just instrumental(the bluesy part) and Travers sings when the slow part begins. It's like two songs in one because the beat changes from Blues to rather Slow! The song was popular at the time and that was played on a local FM radio station in Montreal...Does anyone know about that song??? What's the title???

It would help if you would tell us what you mean by 'at the time'. Would that be 70s, 80, or later. From reading you I would guess that the song is from his later blues influenced period but I am not sure. He had a few blues tracks on his 70s albums as well.

Pat has been on Shrapnal Records for the past 15 yrs. or so playing mostly blues.

I really haven't heard any of his music since the early 90's but if he comes to your town I highly recomend seeing him. Fanastic live player.

Ok it's an old song of the 70's...The song is not from his Shrapnel's period! It's before Crash and Burn...Probably on the 3 first albums??? You know, there's a lot of feed-back guitar effect that he maintains during the riff and in the final part(the slow part) i think that he sang :" I hope you just understand "! Also, there's a distinctive organ's sound during the instrumental part!

I did check 3 cd store but couldn´t find any Pat Travers.
I also seek Raven albums. damn

I am not sure but I think that could be Stevie from his "Making Magic" album.

There is always a first time for anything. I have been buying books and cds on the net since 1995 and never had a problem. Hell more than 60% of my books I have bought on the net. And most of them at Amazon.
