"Steve Ellis" wrote half the songs on this second album "Too Late Too Cry" by "Widowmaker", but unfortuneately never appeared on it. Not to worry, coz those Ellis fans out there should be able to work out which ones he did write. And even though he did not perform them, they were all very good indeed. Would you expect anything else?
Widowmaker's contrarian streak waxes defiantly intact on its second album (which, like its self-titled predecessor, charted in the U.S.). Vocally, the song remains the same, so to speak: new frontman John Butler boasts more character, but sounds just as shrill as the man that he replaced, Steve Ellis (though somewhat more distinctive). That issue aside, the album still stands up. The band sticks to its signature blues-rock raunch on "Something I Can Do Without" and "What a Way to Fall." "Sign the Paper," which laments music-biz treachery. (Widowmaker's manager was Don Arden, an equally controversial presence behind the Black Sabbath and Small Faces scenes.) "Sky Blues" is a stately, good old-fashioned genre exercise, with plenty of heart-tugging leads from the band's guitar tag team, Ariel Bender, of Mott the Hoople, and Hawkwind's Huw Lloyd Langton. As on its debut album, however, the band dips into some unexpected bags, most notably on a countrified "Here Comes the Queen" -- a concert standby during Bender's Mott days -- and "The Hustler," whose tale of the world's oldest profession incorporates Caribbean steel drums. The best song is "Pushin' & Pullin'," which was penned by Bender's collaborator, John Farnham. Bender's appropriately wobbly vocal and guitar pedal effects make the perfect counterpoint to the song's party-till-you drop lyric, over rollicking Butler piano and ever-shifting tempos. It's the undoubted highlight of an eccentric album.
