John Miles - More Miles Per Hour
Review by Cyndi Slick
More Miles Per Hour, the sixth studio album by John Miles, is a rock masterpiece that showcases the artist's incredible musicianship and songwriting skills. Released in 1979, the album features ten tracks that blend rock, pop, and R&B influences to create a unique and dynamic sound.
The opening track, "Can't Keep a Good Man Down," sets the tone for the album with its catchy hooks and driving rhythm. Miles' powerful vocals and skilled guitar work are on full display throughout the album, particularly on tracks like "Oh Dear" and "What Goes Around."
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Slow Down," a soulful ballad that showcases Miles' sensitive side. The song features beautiful piano and string arrangements that add depth and emotion to the track.
Another highlight of the album is "Ready to Spread Your Wings," a high-energy rock anthem that is sure to get listeners pumped up. The song features soaring guitar solos and a driving rhythm section that will have fans tapping their feet and singing along.

I worked with the band on the Rebel album tour in '76. John and Bob wrote some classic stuff back then, and since. John is a huge loss to us.....

Thank you for the bliss of your music Johnny. See you at the other side, my friend.

RIP John Miles.

Fabulous song that carried over the legacy from Zaragon- probably his high point. Having said that he continued to write some awesome stuff after this period. Check out his album 'Upfront' from the 90s. Sadly only seems to concentrate on European cameos these days!

Vet ej om John är en av historiens bästa gitarrister rent tekniskt. Men om man enbart går på känsla är det inte många som slår honom

why did that orgasmic solo have to fade so early , i will never smile fully ever again

Sympathy (US 1980) features 5 songs from MMPH (UK 1979) and adds three others: Where would I be without you, Sympathy, Do it again. The songs from MMPH not included on Sympathy are: Satisfied, Bad blood and Oh dear. My pick for an eight track combination of the two releases would be: Satisfied, It's Not Called Angel, Sympathy, Fella In The Cellar, Can't Keep A Good Man Down, Do It All Again, C'Est La Vie, We All Fall Down

עוד להיט פגז של מיילס כאשר נושב בגבו הכישרון העצום של אלן פארסונס המפיק והמעבד והאחראי ליצירתו של השיר הזה ! שימו לב עד כמה דומה השיר לשירים של אלן פארסונס פרוג'קט !
2023-04-02
oh yes he was

My Dad was always really disappointed that such a great solo was cut so short!

Beautiful song, guitarsolo at the end could have lasted for an extra 10 minutes or so.
It's a pity most people only know him of "Music". "You have it All" is another great song.
