RED RIVER - TEXAS ADVICE (1990)

Very little is known about Red River indeed, so here's what the famous Frank Beeson wrote about the band in a BOB review.

"Red River is a power trio hailing from Texas-via-L.A. Fronted by virtuoso guitarist Billy Ray Martin, Red River is one of SoCal's greatest new finds. Billy Ray can thunderously plow through a slide guitar with enough expertise to challenge Z.Z. Top's Billy Gibbons. When bassist Suzy Mae takes the lead vocals, she sounds a bit like Joan Jett, and when she sings a duet with Billy Ray, the vocal blend recalls X. Red River are flowing strong".

They first released a mini LP in 1988 on french label New Rose which was included as bonus tracks with their full length "Texas Advice."
