Review:
The one and only album from the rocking quartet known as Shooting Gallery, and featuring ex Hanoi Rocks and Cherry Bombz guitarist Andy McCoy is a sleaze rock classic. Cuts like “Restless”, “Teenage Breakdown”, “Striptease” and “Dandelion” really rock! The band also does exceptional covers of “Don’t Never Leave Me” (Hanoi Rocks), “House Of Ecstasy” (Cherry Bombz) and “Brown Eyed Girl” (Van Morrison).

  This album sounded cool, but unfortunately it came out as alternative/grunge was taking over the airwaves, so it didn’t stand much of a chance (not to mention the substance abuse problems of the band members). Shooting Gallery are a band you would want to hide your daughters from, but is still worthy of two thumbs up!
