Classic rock album review

One line comment from Geoff Barton album review in issue out 12th November

The SUPER LUNGED TEMPTRESS !!!!!!!

If you own a copy of Meat Loaf’s Bat Out Of Hell II, take a look at the credits for I Would Do Anything For Love (But I Won’t Do That). Notice the name of the person who duets with the Loaf to such dramatic effect on the song? Yep – it’s Mrs Loud. The identity of this super-lunged temptress has been the subject of much speculation down the years, but true Bat fans will know Mrs Loud is the alter ego of Geordie singer Lorraine Crosby. Now Mrs Loud has lined up a gig at Newcastle City Hall on November 27 to support the release of her new solo album. Tickets are £20 and £15. Box office phone: 0191 2612606. The show also features Bonnie Tyler as ’very special guest star’.
