REVIEW
BY: Michael Fischer, The
Nashville City TOON
"...The
opening act was a local favorite from Louisville [ed. note: Paducah]
Kentucky called Big
Jim
Slade http://www.bigjimslade.com/.
Big Jim Slade was made famous in the
1980s spoof, Kentucky Fried Movie.
Suitable name for such a kick ass 4-piece band. These guys are a great
blend of King’s X meets Soundgarden. Great songs! Excellent
vocals! I
heard they were opening and skipped a Jack Daniels steak dinner at
South Street to make the show early. They wielded some tunes off their
new upcoming CD release. I’d recommend checking those guys
out. If this
band stays the course, Big Jim Slade will be hosting Headbangers
Ball along with King’s X one day very soon.

An excerpt from the article "Mitch
Mitchell Not Tied To Jimi" (In Review, August 28,1998)
"In Review: Who are some of your
favorite artists these days?"
"Mitchell: Oh my god, that is
almost impossible to answer. Actually
there are a couple of good young bands that I've heard hear in
Nashville. There's a young band, actually a friend's band, called Big
Jim Slade, that I've gone to see. I'm looking at some of the
up-and-coming groups, so to speak. The musicianship is pretty high
because there are so many players here."
Mitch Mitchell is the
former drummer of The Jimi Hendrix Experience

"This popular local foursome
play swirling hard rock with a sensibility
that's evenly swayed by Southern boogie and soaring power pop, although
when they merge the genres, it comes out heavier and more corrosive
than you might expect-more Hendrix than Collective Soul or Cheap
Trick."-Nashville
