SASS JORDAN

Remastered , full booklet + 5 bonus tracks (2 Studio 3 Live)

RATS is the third studio album by Canadian rock singer/songwriter Sass Jordan, released in March 1994. It explores themes of depression, drugs and sex while employing Hendrixian and Beatlesque styles. Heavy on guitars and tight arrangements it's arguably Jordan's Rock masterpiece.

Featuring : STEVIE SALAS on Guitars

Sass Jordan's third album continues in the vein begun on Racine; this is roots rock with teeth. "High Road Easy" received considerable radio airplay, and the other rockers on the album are similar-catchy with an edge, showcasing Jordan's gut-deep voice. As on Racine, the up-tempo stuff works the best: "Damaged", "High Road Easy", "Ugly" (featuring a guest appearance from George Clinton), "Honey", and "Wish". Of the slower songs, "I'm Not" and "Give" are excellent, though "Breakin'" is an acquired taste. Jordan's got way more attitude and a much stronger voice than most singer-songwriters, and both are shown to their best advantage on Rats.
