The Sensational Alex Harvey Band: Tomorrow Belongs To Me (Vertigo)
Mick Houghton, Let It Rock, June 1975
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE to listen to Alex Harvey without feeling distinctly unsettled. On stage he's an obsessive – a malevolent dictator figure – in full control of his own faculties and the audience. I felt so paranoid, stumbling from a gig at the Rainbow last year, that I half expected to find Finsbury Park in the throes of a race riot.
