Bio:

Legs Diamond is an American rock band that has often been called "The American Deep Purple". They formed in Los Angeles, California starting with Michael "Diamond" Gargano (bass) and Jeff Poole (drums). The group released their self-titled debut album for Mercury Records in 1977. The original band broke up in 1980 after three popular albums, but reformed in 1984 after their original albums had begun to acquire a cult following.The new lineup released several more albums and continued to perform throughout the 1990s and 2000s. In 2005, original frontman Rick Sanford was replaced by ex-Montrose and Wild Horses vocalist John Levesque, and the band released their latest album, "Diamonds Are Forever", in 2006. Original members include Roger Romeo (guitar), Michael Prince (keyboards/rhythm guitar), and Jeff Poole (percussion). The band still does the occasional gig in the Los Angeles area and at least once a year in San Antonio, TX where they are still hugely popular, the result of being a favorite of influential disc jockey Joe "the Godfather" Anthony (1940-1992).Keyboardist Michael Prince is active in studio recording, in Los Angeles, working with some better known R+B and Pop Acts, including Beyoncé, Chris Brown, Usher, Los Lobos and Michael Jackson.Guitarist Roger Romeo is also currently working in a new band called the Funkin Maniacs. Power drummer Jon Hyde (Detective) and NS Stick and bassist Gary Jibilian round out the trio. They are recording a new CD slated for release early 2012.As of 2011, the band was working on their 12th CD due to be available within the year.

Album:

After Rock Candy re-released three of the US band's most sought-after albums as valuable reissues in 2018, album four, five and six are now being released in chronological order. All three CDs contain brand new liner notes with new archive photos. They have been remastered and contain up to five bonus tracks."Town Bad Girl" was a triumphant return for Legs Diamond. The band released their first album back in 1977 and "Town Bad Girl" has one foot in Legs Diamonds' 70's legacy and another in 80's Hard Rock. This record mixes the best of both worlds.The record is a fine piece of Hard Rock, which has all the elements that makes it a classic album in the Hard Rock genre; the production, songs, artwork, backing vocals and musicians is all in place.The record is diverse and builds bridge between the "old" and revamped Legs Diamond, since it has re-recordings of Stage Fright from the first Legs Diamond album and Woman off "A Diamond is a Hard Rock".The strength of "Town Bad Girl" is the amazing mid-tempo tunes World on Fire and I am For You. The record is the hardest Legs Diamond record mainly because of Roger Romeo's hard driving guitar, which forces a song like I am for You. The song is a great example of the music on "Town Bad Girl" since the keys soften it a bit and the outcome is a great mid-tempo Hard Rock song.The irresistible Can't Get You (Out of My Mind) has a catchy chorus and cool Hammond from Michael Prince.Singer Rick Stanford has a great raw voice with a Brian Johnson alike tone. He certainly differentiates Legs Diamond. Guitarist Roger Romeo's playing is sharp and precise. The production puts Romeo's guitar up-front and the guitar is always in-your-face along with Stanford's blowtorch voice.Town Bad Girl" is packed with great tunes: The Ballad Never Enough Time is haunting and should have been a hit single. Legs Diamond outlives their AOR dreams on Look in her Eyes and Cry No More. Michael Prince and Roger Romeo have created a one of the best choruses for Cry No More.Overall, "Town Bad Girl" is a solid Hard Rock album with some great songs and some top performances. A forgotten gem?
