This could do the same for the Smoke but production is nothing without good quality songs and this is what they have all the way through. The production has a polish and shine on several tracks similar to Tom Petty’s mega-selling “Full Moon Fever” and that album is regarded as one of the best driving records. The result is an album that should, at the very least, continue their ascendancy, but if there is justice, it should catapult them to higher levels of success. They have employed fellow Atlantan Brendan O’ Brien‘s ( AC/DC/ Pearl Jam/ Bruce Springsteen) production services and remarkably, according to one report I saw, recorded “Holding all the Roses” in little over a week. So they release their fourth studio album with a change of record label leaving Southern Ground Records and signing with Earache Records. Blackberry Smoke has been following this path, while like the early ‘ DC, releasing albums to complement and cement their growing rise and also to secure future longevity. Many bands have achieved careers this way like the giant AC/DC to name but one. Constant touring in order to build up a fan following and reputation while honing your stagecraft is a bit of a rock n’ roll tradition.
