While building a solid fan base for his bluesy hard rock on both sides of the Atlantic, Pat was aided and abetted by such musical luminaries as famed drummers Tommy Aldridge (Whitesnake, Black Oak Arkansas) and Nicko McBrain (Iron Maiden), as well as guitarist Pat Thrall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRecording his last record for Polydor in 1984, Pat signed to a number of independent labels, eventually settling on the Los Angeles based Cleopatra for \u003ci\u003eBlack Betty\u003c\/i\u003e (CD1). The album featured a host of rock classics from the 1970s covered by Pat in his own inimitable style, including versions of songs by everyone Aerosmith and AC\/DC, to ZZ Top, with Lynyrd Skynyrd and Ram Jam in between. Travers also revisited his own back catalogue with \u003ci\u003eSnortin' Whiskey (Drinkin' Cocaine)\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBoom, Boom (Out Go The Lights).

A fiery return to some of the bluesy hard rock he was best known for in the 1970s, with smouldering cuts like ‘I Always Run’ and the bluesy, hard rock swagger of ‘Searching For a Clue’, ‘Retro Rocket’ is an exciting ride, and an album that lets Pat Travers remind us of his exemplary guitar skills. This collection is completed by\u003ci\u003e Swing! \u003c\/i\u003e(CD4), a major departure for a contemporary hard rock artist, if ‘Retro Rocket’ wasn’t retro enough, \u003ci\u003eSwing!\u003c\/i\u003e is a tribute to the big band and jazz era of the 1940s and 1950s, with a number of big band standards, including ‘Sing Sing Sing’ and ‘In The Mood’, originally from artists such as Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller and Duke Ellington. Despite this major departure, this album still features Pat Travers’ signature, sizzling guitar, housed within some fun arrangements of big band classics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HNE","offers":[{"title":"CDx4","offer_id":50947009020235,"sku":"2235653","price":28.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/Screenshot_2024-12-07_at_19.31.13_52abf98a_thumbnail_4096.png?v=1733603579"},{"product_id":"going-down-to-jacksonville-1983-re","title":"Going Down To Jacksonville - 1983","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe magnificent Pat Travers stepped on a Florida stage in 1983 and proceeded to annihilate it with a blistering set of road-tested, hard rockin' anthems!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cleopatra","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":51620017045835,"sku":"R1319-6360","price":18.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"LP - Black","offer_id":51620017078603,"sku":"R1319-5959","price":31.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/889466658624.jpg?v=1744297415"},{"product_id":"heat-in-the-street-tour-1978-mg","title":"Heat In The Street Tour - 1978","description":"\u003cp\u003eAnother smokin' hot, melt your face off, volcanic performance from the living legend himself, Pat Travers!
