Album Notes & Community Reviews
The solo debut from the former Family frontman, 'Chappo' expertly frames Roger Chapman's famously intense, vibrato-heavy vocals within tight, driving rock arrangements. The album leans into gritty blues-rock and straightforward pub-rock energy, distancing him from his progressive roots. It successfully launched a highly robust, particularly successful solo career in the German market.
