Fine third effort from classic Canuck pop rockers.......2006-02-11

Trooper was one of Canada's best 1970s pop rockers. From 1975 to '80, the Vancouver quintet produced five albums and a dozen top 20 hits. And they're still around, with founders Ra McGuire (vocals, harmonica) and Brian Smith (guitar/vocals) still touring around the country.

Knock 'Em Dead Kid, the third of four albums produced by Guess Who/BTO founder Randy Bachman -- a big influence on the band's sound -- has the usual mix of rockers (the title track), unforgettable pop classics (We're Here For A Good Time) and ballads (Oh Pretty Lady). Hook laden, well arranged, they show a band at the top of its form even as it debuted a new bass player (Doni Underhill).

As with all the band's albums reissued on CD, MCA has done a minimalist job. While the sound is much improved over the dreadful Hot Shots compilation, there are no bonus tracks, no liner notes, no extra pictures. No surprise, considering MCA has little regard for the band's catalogue. Still, it's great to have this album on CD.

Go Trooper! We're all Vol!!.......2005-02-18

I am a big trooper fan. He puts on a show that quite frankly leaves you without an emotion. You want to clap, but you can't get your hands to work. The only emotion that really fits a trooper show is singing the greatest song ever recorded, "Rocky Top". How much do I love Tennessee football you ask? I have painted every square inch of my home orange including my legs. The color orange rules because I can go huntin in the mornin, work my road crew job in the afternoons and go to a Vol game at night! Whoo hoo, good 'ol rocky top, rocky top Tennuhseeee! That right there felt better than sex. You what else is better? A chest bump from Trooper. He's a crazy kook that acts like a cheerleader, but he's actually a coach. When trooper puts on a show, Every blue chip player in america becomes a silent commit to the vols. They're ALL VOL!!!! Whooooooo!!! How do I know this? I just do, trust my sources. One night we were all out in the boro and Trooper comes walking into hooters and Jamie and Chris run up to chest bump Trooper. They kept chesting bumping each other singing rocky top for 2 hours while J Abs and I took home a couple waitresses. You need this album, it Rocky tops!!

Classic Rock.......1999-05-04

One of the 3 greatest albums Trooper ever recorded (along with "Two for the show", and "Thick as thieves"). Great AOR ("We're here for a good time") balanced with touching ballads ("Pretty lady"), a soundtrack to my youth! A classic album from a legendary band!!
