Bio:

Lita Rossana Ford (born September 19, 1958)is a British-American rock guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter, who was the lead guitarist for The Runaways in the late 1970s before embarking on a solo career in the 1980s.Lita Ford was a rare combination of beauty and talent in an era when heavy metal was almost completely void of a female presence. While adolescent boys fantasized about the guitar wizard, Lita managed to enjoy some moderate success while partying and living the wild rock lifestyle.Carmelita Rossanna Ford was born in London, England and started playing the guitar at the age of eleven. Still a teenager, Lita joined the all female group The Runaways, the brainchild of Hollywood guru Kim Fowley. At the time The Runaways were largely dismissed by critics as nothing more than a poor gimmick, but that view changed when the girls disbanded and former members Lita and Joan Jett became successful solo artists. When that band broke up Lita was unsure about her future and worked several jobs, including hairdressing and gas pumping, before Eddie Van Halen encouraged her to pick up the guitar once again. She did so and started pursuing a solo career.Lita Ford managed to secure a deal with Mercury records, but her debut Out For Blood was almost shelved due to a cover that was deemed too offensive. With revamped artwork the album was finally released but few people seemed to notice. The follow-up, while charting in the Top 100 on Billboard's charts, didn't fare much better. Lita became engaged to her childhood idol, Black Sabbath's Tony Iommi, but that relationship soon soured as did her association with Mercury when they refused to release her 1987 recording Bride Wore Black.Lita severed ties with her record company and employed Sharon Osbourne as her manager. With a new label she was able to release her best selling album, 1988's Lita. It featured the #12 hit "Kiss Me Deadly" and a #8 duet with Ozzy Osbourne called "Close My Eyes Forever". With a fresh marriage to W.A.S.P.'s madman Chris Holmes and a commercially triumphant album, Lita Ford was arguably the most successful woman in all of hard rock. But Stiletto proved to be a disappointment both in sales and material despite including the song "Lisa" which was dedicated to Lita's recently departed mother. Fresh off a divorce from Holmes, Lita regrouped for the Dangerous Curves album, but by that time grunge was beginning to settle in and few people took notice. In 1992 she appeared in the network television show Herman's Head as well as a stint with Howie Mandel's house band on his short lived late night show. In 1994 she married Nitro's Jim Gillette and set about working on her next release Black. Ford and Gillette also formed a group called Rumble Culture and recorded some demos, but nothing has been officially released. On May 13th, 1997 Lita Ford became a mother by giving birth to a healthy boy, and one more child would soon arrive. It has been several years since Lita Ford has released any solo material making one wonder if motherhood has now become her passion. I'm sure we will see more from Lita sometime in the future.

Album:

As requested, here’s some LITA FORD remastered albums, the very good 2-CD BGO Records release including the albums “Lita” + “Dangerous Curves” in one package, double CD jewel case.These are the more mainstream Lita Ford albums, with that 1988-1992 period glossy, bombastic production sound.When former Runaways’ guitarist Lita Ford released her debut solo album (‘Out For Blood’) in 1983, the sleeve of the record laid her metal credentials bold and bare. Five years on, however, things were to change; not only did Lita shed the studs ‘n leather in favor of a more stylish look, but her music was given a comprehensive overhaul too.Producer Mike Chapman was determined to steer her down a more commercial path (melodic hard rock rather than metal, class rather than crunch), and 1988 ‘Lita’ was the first fruit of their in-studio relationship.Featuring co-writes from Motley Crue’s Nikki Sixx & Motorhead’s Lemmy, a smash hit duet with Ozzy Osbourne (‘Close My Eyes Forever’), plus a brace of major US chart hits (‘Kiss Me Deadly’), this album was to be the biggest-selling in Ford’s career.Lita’s all-round musical talent was finally getting the recognition it desereved, with a Grammy nomination plus a gold record award subsequently comin’ her way.After another album produced by Chapman, Lita decided to change in favor to famous Tom Werman for his 1991 album “Dangerous Curves”, searching for some kind of a return to roots.“Dangerous Curves” is edgier than its two predecessors, but still ultra catchy; just listen to the melodic hard rock perfection of midtempo / AORish ‘Shot Of Poison’, co-written with Jim Vallance.Or the Vixen meets Heart synth ballad “Bad Love”, the pumping “Playin’ With Fire”, or the melodic hard rock little gem that is “Little Too Early”, written by Al Pitrelli / Joe Lynn Turner and featuring Jeff Scott Soto on backing / harmony vocals.“Dangerous Curves” is one of my favorite Lita Ford albums, a true example from the bronze age of L.A. Studio Session: this is still a time that plenty of money was poured into the creation of these monster Rock records. Production is huge, typically 1990-91, and I love it.As usual, BGO Records remaster is kinda ‘Nineties’, punchy yet in control. On both discs it was done during the past decade, this is a reissue from last year, and a HIGHLY Recommended one.
