THE ANSWER, Highbury Garage, London
28 October 2011

Phil Lynott would be proud!! Mixing influences such as Free, Led Zeppelin and Thin Lizzy, Northern Ireland's The Answer are without a doubt the best live band of their generation.

Like The Black Crowes with a mammoth pair of balls, the band tore through a set list made up of material from their three studio albums to date.

Having spent a large amount of time on the road with AC/DC over the last couple of years, the band have clearly benefited from the experience and frontman Cormack Neeson worked the entire venue from the moment they took the stage.

Newer tracks from the recent 'Revival' album like 'One More Revival', 'Trouble' and 'Vida (I Want You)' sit well amongst the more established songs in the set list such as 'Under The Sky', 'Preachin''. 'On and On' and 'Too Far Gone' - we were also treated to a rousing version of Rose Tattoo's 'Rock N Roll Outlaw'.

As a band The Answer are musically tight, whether it be guitar playing from Paul Mahon or the solid, dependable rhythm section of Micky Waters and James Heatley it is all good - then you have to mention Neeson once again as not only is he a great frontman but his harmonica skills are second to none.

The full to capacity crowd loved every minute of this gig and the band have promised to be back in the UK in March.
