FIRE OF LOVE stands among the most influential records of the 80s, with countless musicians declaring their love for The Gun Club, and their leader the late JEFFREY LEE PIERCE. A visionary and fierce moment in time when The Gun Club took the raw, dripping Delta Blues and infused it with the energy and fire of the L.A. punk scene.
What makes FIRE OF LOVE such a brilliant listen, long after its time, is that how this blatant homage to the Blues was amplified, energized and kicked into overdrive in a new style that combined the ghosts of the original model with a fast, unwound and supremely energetic beat. The beginning of a legend.
