  • Description

    You want some real girl power, then go no further than this London quartet!

    After completing 'Nightmare At Maple Cross' in 1986, bassist Gil Weston-Jones left the band. Her replacement was an inspired choice in Rock Goddess bass guitarist Tracey Lamb, joining Cris Bonacci on lead guitar and founder members Kim McAuliffe on vocals / rhythm guitar and Denise Dufort on drums.

    Released in 1988, "Take A Bite" was their second album for GWR Records, then home to Motorhead, Tank, Hawkwind and Fastway.

    Not only does this album feature a brief return from founder Girlschool member Enid Williams, providing backing vocals on 'This Time', but also features FM's Merv Goldsworthy & Pete Jupp, who sing backing vocals on the self-explanatory 'Girls on Top'.

    On previous album 'Nightmare At Maple Cross', the band gave Mud's 'Tiger Feet' a run for its money, whereas here a cover of The Sweet's 'Fox On The Run' is given a suitable make over. The album is also notable for a co-write on 'Head Over Hills' with long-time Girlschool collaborator, the late, great Lemmy Kilmister.
