CD ReviewsAtomic Rooster - 'Rarities' (Angel Air) Mike Reed | USA | 12/16/2003 (4 out of 5 stars) "Very well assembled collection of unreleased tunes that's been pulled from Rooster guitarist/vocalist's John DuCann's private stash.Can't complain.It's a pretty decent nineteen track disc that surely holds my complete interest,to say the least.Best songs are the rocking "Death Walks Behind You",the alternative mix of "Throw Your Life Away","Devil's Answer",the demo of "Don't Lose Your Mind","Forward Revealed",the in-your-teeth "End Of The Day",and one of my personal Rooster favorites "I Can't Take No More".Also liked the radio friendly "No Changes By Me".There are a couple of U.S. radio ads mixed in.Very cool!Why don't more artists tag radio ads on their later day compilation CD's?Vince Crane's killer keyboard work is nearly worth the admission price alone.'Rarities' is a good effort of top grade UK heavy progressive rock."
