Don’t Let Up: Night Ranger’s 11th Album (GQCS-90311)
Today’s entry spotlights the 11th studio album from American hard rock stalwarts Night Ranger, “Don’t Let Up.” Released in Japan on March 10, 2017, via Ward Records, this CD carries the catalog number GQCS-90311. This particular copy includes the original obi strip.
Following their successful 35th-anniversary celebrations, “Don’t Let Up” showcases a band that refuses to slow down. This album marks the studio debut of new guitarist Keri Kelli (ex-Alice Cooper, Slash’s Snakepit), who joins Brad Gillis to form a revitalized twin-guitar attack. Along with keyboardist Eric Levy, they join original members Jack Blades (bass/vocals) and Kelly Keagy (drums/vocals) to deliver a classic American rock sound.
The album is a testament to their enduring energy, blending hard-driving rock with catchy melodies and big choruses. Tracks like the opener “Somehow Someway,” the anthemic “Running Out Of Time,” and the title track “Don’t Let Up” capture the band’s “live” spirit and ability to craft memorable hooks. The album also features moments of acoustic pop (“We Can Work It Out”) and slide-guitar driven grooves (“Won’t Be Your Fool Again”).
For collectors, this Japanese edition is the definitive version. It includes an exclusive bonus track, an acoustic version of “We Can Work It Out,” adding a unique flavor to the release. GQCS-90311 is a celebration of Night Ranger’s 35-year legacy, proving they are still a vital force in the world of melodic hard rock.
