Reach for the Sky by Slaughter

SONG-Reach for the Sky
ARTIST-Slaughter
ALBUM-The Wild Life
YEAR-1992

"Just reach for the sky. There's nothing that you can do-a..."

More ambient rhythms start this heavy metal piece. Mark Slaughter slays with his high intensity voice, and Tim Kelly kills with his axe.

Out For Love by Slaughter

SONG-Out For Love
ARTIST-Slaughter
ALBUM-The Wild Life
YEAR-1992

"LOVE. LOVE. LOVE."

The percussion infused beat from Blas Elias of this song is addictive as well as Tim Kelly's guitar licks. I'm out for love, how about you?

On My Own by Slaughter

SONG-On My Own
ARTIST-Slaughter
ALBUM-Back to Reality
YEAR-1999

"Many roads I've traveled..."

The slow road to memories, this ballad is a melancholy account of going on with life without the one you love. Mark Slaughter has the aching ability to sound a lot like Tommy Bolin in this song.

Old Man by Slaughter

SONG-Old Man
ARTIST-Slaughter
ALBUM-The Wild Life
YEAR-1992

"Learn a lesson especially from a man with a Smith and Wesson."

Some wild, wild west going on with the twang, harmonica and some country flavor in the guitar.

Songwriter-Mark Slaughter & Dana Strum
