The Bride Stripped Bare

Recorded during a time of significant personal upheaval for the frontman, these tracks carry a heavy sense of heartbreak. The album features a mix of original compositions and soul covers that emphasize a raw, stripped-back sound.

This release marks a transitional moment in late seventies rock, shifting away from earlier art-school production styles. It remains a cult favorite among fans who appreciate his crooning delivery in a more intimate, bluesy context.
