  First ever vinyl reissue of all-time classic hard rock guitar private press record from 1982. Winterhawk were a 70s hard rock band from the Chicago area featuring guitarist Jordan Macarus. However, they didn't manage to release their first album until 1982 when the band was on it's last legs. Compact Disc reissues have been around since the 90s, but here is the long awaited vinyl reissue. With two bonus tracks! Review: "Revival" by Winterhawk is without a doubt the most incredible unknown record in the world, and even one of the most incredible records and that's it.
  You can bet that somewhere there is a parallel universe in which Winterhawk's masterpiece "Free to live" is more acclaimed than "Stairway to Heaven" and Jordan Macarus plays in Deep Purple instead of Steve Morse.
  Yes, the Winterhawks are that spectacular.
  The band formed in the late '70s thanks to its undisputed leader Jordan Macarus (guitar and part time vocals), performed live in Chicago and the surrounding area, in '78 recorded a live album that would not be released for many years, and then it melts.
  In 1982 for some twist of fate Macarus reassembles the group and manages to record "Revival" before another breakup!
  It is a selection of all the pieces that played years before and contains a quantity of riffs and solos that would be enough for a normal band for about ten records.
  The songs written by Macarus and sung by bassist Doug Brown are something indescribable.
  "Revival", "Period of change" and "Free to live" would be classics on any Purple, Zeppelin and Wishbone Ash record.
  Musically they owe a little to the whole 70s scene, but also to the rock'n'roll scene of the previous decade.
  Vocally, on the other hand, we are dealing with a Robert Plant on steroids: at the end of the 1970s, rumors like this simply did not exist yet.
  The bass caresses you throughout the record and takes you around for some incredible rides.
  "Free to live" cannot be described: solo after solo, between the super technical and the emotional, the singing is heartbreaking and exudes freedom from all pores.
  In short, a forgotten masterpiece (and probably badly distributed at the time) absolutely to be rediscovered!
