When Rock and roll was a religion, four young man gathered to commune and dream. It was a dream, that like so many in the San Francisco Bay Area, began in a Garage. Robert Berry and Gene Perrault, in 1975, got together in Berry’s garage and began what was to become an eight year reverie. They created, with the addition of Roger Bonasera and Paul Keller, a new and distinct sound, a sound whose trademark would be a hard-driving, high-energy beat. Their rhythms were powerful, yet smooth, their vocals textured and tight. This was the nucleus of the dream that became Hush, one the most exciting bands to appear in the late seventies.

Notes
HUSH featured Robert Berry, who later released some great albums with ALLIANCE,3 and a couple of solo-albums. This HUSH-album was his first musical effort. It was released in 1979 on an obscure recordlabel that went bankrupt and caused a split of the band that worked on this album between 1975-1980. They had some success in Japan and were promised to become popular in The States, something that never happened.
Their re-isued CD contains 10 tracks that is a mix of A.O.R., hard 70’s Pop rock and Pomp rock. Especially the midtempo aor/ pomp-classified tracks “Alright” and “It’s all too much” does sound pretty good and quite a bit like ROADMASTER at times. Tracks like “Saturday night”,”Money” and “You” are pure hard late 70’s/early 80’s uptempo poprockers like a mix of RICK SPRINGFIELD’s early 80’s material and RUSS BALLARD’s albums ‘Barnet dogs’ and ‘Into the fire’. Combine these elements and you will know how this album sounds. A pretty good album and if you like some of the mentioned acts in this review, you must get yourself a copy of this CD.
