review of "THE SPORTING LIFE"

Sept. 23, 1994
Led Zeppelin bassist, John Paul Jones, and Attractions drummer, Pete Thomas, join the demonic diva to form a power-mad trio on Galas' most rocking album yet. Jones' tar-pit riffs egg her to heights of vocal hysteria akin to Jimmy Page's guitar tricks. Galas turns from her usual topic, AIDS, to love - or more precisely, sex and obsession. The recurring Bobbitt-like fantasies may be Galas' commentary on playing with a member of rock's most famous phallocentric bands.
