Paving the Glorious Road: Bow Wow’s 1978 Album (SM25-5040)
Today we continue tracing the path of Japanese hard rock pioneers Bow Wow, focusing on their fourth studio album, “Glorious Road.” Released in 1978 on SMS Records with catalog number SM25-5040, this 12-inch vinyl LP captures the band firing on all cylinders during their initial influential run.
Following up on powerful albums like “Charge,” “Glorious Road” finds Bow Wow further cementing their potent hard rock sound. Deeply rooted in the classic British rock tradition, the album unleashes high-energy performances driven by increasingly virtuosic guitar work. Expect powerful riffs, soaring solos, commanding vocals, and a tight, driving rhythm section characteristic of the best late-70s hard rock.
This album represents Bow Wow operating as a seasoned unit, consistently delivering high-quality, impactful rock. “Glorious Road” showcases their songwriting maturity while maintaining the raw energy of their earlier work, solidifying their position as leaders in the burgeoning Japanese heavy rock scene.
SM25-5040 is another vital chapter in the Bow Wow story. “Glorious Road” stands as a testament to their power and influence during the foundational years of Japanese hard rock, making it an essential listen for fans and collectors tracing the genre’s history.
