Doctor Rock And The Wild Bunch - Eye Of The Hurricane (1991)

If you’re a devoted disciple of that Harem Scarem sound, Harem Scarem are a Canadian hard rock band from Toronto, Ontario, with Harry Hess, a Canadian record producer, singer and guitarist, and best known as the former frontman for this hard rock band.
In 1991 he released with Doctor Rock And The Wild Bunch, the album “Eye Of The Hurricane”.
This album is just what the doctor ordered. It rocks in true Harem Scarem fashion from start to finish, which should come as no surprise since Harem Scarem members are all over this (basically, as Delbert pointed out, this is Harem Scarem with a different vocalist).
While I personally don’t rate this as being quite on par with Harem Scarem, it’s still a very high quality melodic hard rock album, slick and polished enough to make fans of this style go absolutely wild. Bottome line, there’s bunches of hard rockin’ fun to be found here.
