REVIEW:
Melding rock, R&B, and gospel, “Bang a Drum” adds some welcome variety to Blaze of Glory. Compared to the flashiness of the title track (and a few of the album’s ballads), this tune tends to get lost in the shuffle, as far as which tracks stand out most. Yet, the contemporary sound of “Bang a Drum” presents this album’s most underrated effort, no matter if it’s meant as classy filler. This song is worth checking out.
