The 1983 Listening Post - Molly Hatchet - No Guts...No Glory

Molly Hatchet - No Guts...No Glory

March 1983
Molly Hatchet
No Guts…No Glory
3.1 of 5
Highlights:
Ain’t Even Close
Fall of the Peacemakers
Man, Molly Hatchet…just a perfectly mediocre southern boogie band. Like Skynrd lite. But, when they boogie rock, they boogie ROCK (I bet Raging Slab listened to a LOT of Hatchet…and pound for pound I’ll take them over ZZ Top any day) The 8 minute Fall of the Peacemakers makes the whole record worth it.
Sometimes this record reminds me of The Beat Farmers only less knowingly cheeky and more earnest. I just wish Hatchet would lighten up…just a bit.
