Gun - Every 1's a Winner

*****

Gun are back with another great cover!!!

Scottish Rock band Gun, were huge in the 90's, and one of the reasons for this was their 1994 mega cover hit 'Word Up' originally recorded by 'Cameo'. When I first listened to this, I was like "Oh! My God!!! not another Cover!!!"... but I have to say Gun have a winner with this one. You really would not believe it's not Mark Rankin on vocals for them still, and that guitarists Giuliano Gizzi brother Dante Gizzi has taken to the mic to strut his stuff on this Hot Chocolate classic track.

This track sounds like Gun when they were at their best think 'Swagger' meets 'Gallus' and you almost have it, They really have a new life to them again, and sound like they want to be onstage doing this again. I think Classic and Soft Rock is coming back and their is a real place for Gun on the UK radio stations. Gun are all about classic riffs, and 'Every 1's a Winner' has them in abundance. If this is to go by then their 2015 album 'Frantic' will be a big hit.

I think the Hot Chocolate legend Errol Brown will be listening to this track from Heaven, and simply loving it.The killer solo at the end of the track is a real added extra. Also I think Dante's vocal tone really brings something new to the song. I have found myself putting this on repeat, so I think it's a great cover that will be enjoyed by a lot of people.
