''Mad Dog'' is the fourth solo studio album by John Entwistle (And his last for six years) who was the bassist for The Who. and the debut album by John Entwistle's Ox. ''Mad Dog'' didn't generate much interest, either in sales or among fans, in what sounded like and is often referred as to by fans as "The Son of ''Rigor Mortis'' a second volume of Rock & Roll pastiches rubbing shoulders with items of dubious taste. His next solo album Too Late the Hero would become his most successful while ''Mad Dog'' was his least successful solo album until the release of The Rock. The song "Cell Number 7", (which is a close relation to The Who's Long Live Rock.) detailed The Who's then recent brush with Canadian justice in 1974 after a hotel wrecking spree in Montreal while on their Quadrophenia tour.〔Arresthttp://www.allmusic.com/album/mad-dog-mw0000020376〕 ==Critical reception== AllMusic said that the album "Is enjoyable in short bursts, but it also makes a good case for the conventional wisdom that even the best bass players are only so-so as band leaders.",〔http://www.allmusic.com/album/mad-dog-mw0000020376〕 Allmusic also said that "He can't seem to tell his good jokes from the ones that sink without a trace, he sets his best songs right beside numbers that would have been best left in the rehearsal space, and for a guy who was one-third of England's greatest power trio (plus vocalist), he doesn't always know what to do with a large band."〔http://www.allmusic.com/album/mad-dog-mw0000020376〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mad Dog (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
