Great_Albums<a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/MickRonson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MickRonson</a> – Slaughter on 10th Avenue (1974). Best known for nimble guitar work behind David Bowie and Ian Hunter, Mick Ronson shows a more eclectic side on his debut solo LP. A competent singer with an emotive edge more cabaret than rock and roll, Ronson brings a dramatic flair to covers of “Love Me Tender” and the Richard Rodgers showtune/ title track. “Only After Dark” is the set’s one knees-up rocker – a forerunner to the new wave Ronson helped inspire. <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/GreatAlbums1970s" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GreatAlbums1970s</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/GreatRockAlbums" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GreatRockAlbums</a>
