SLADE – IN FOR A PENNY: RAVES & FAVES: 1/29/2007 |

LOS ANGELES, CA – Back in 2003, Shout! Factory corrected a glaring injustice in record stores across America with the release of Get Yer Boots On: The Best Of Slade, the only CD domestically available from one of the all-time great rock bands. Building on the success of that collection, Shout! Factory presents another fantastic slab of Slade with In For A Penny: Raves & Faves, in stores April 17, 2007 for the suggested list price of $13.98. Compiled by noted music journalist Dan Epstein, In For A Penny digs deeper into the Slade catalog, presenting a connoisseur selection of lesser-known tracks that prove these hard-rocking Brits were more than just a one-dimensional singles act.
The quintessential glam rock band, Slade shook the British charts throughout the ’70s with their boot-stomping, glitter-shaking anthems and outrageous visual style. While less successful in the US, their hard-hitting sound influenced everyone from Kiss and The Sex Pistols to Mötley Crüe and Oasis. In For A Penny’s 15-tracks reach beyond Slade’s well-known hits to showcase sharp songwriting and surprising sophistication. Highlights include the much-requested b-side “Wonderin’ Y,” which offers a more melancholy side of this band, and charging album tracks like “How D’You Ride” and “Do We Still Do It.”
