Description:
For the millions...and millions...who discovered Kid Rock with his monster hit “DEVIL WITHOUT A CAUSE,” Lava/Atlantic – in association with Rock’s Top Dog Records – is pleased to offer the chance to catch up on the Kid’s illustrious career. For starters, the aptly titled “THE HISTORY OF ROCK” includes remixed and reworked cuts from two of the Detroit Cowboy’s long-unavailable early works – “THE POLYFUZE METHOD” (1993) and “EARLY MORNIN’ STONED PIMP” (1996). “All this shit that I’ve been bragging about, talking about ‘I’ve been here for ten years,’” Rock recently told Rolling Stone, “everybody knows the story, and here’s the proof of it.” And because Kid Rock is the kind of cat who just keeps on giving, the album also features a fistful of new tunes: “F*** That” (which originally appeared in late 1999 on Atlantic/Warner Sunset’s Any Given Sunday soundtrack), “Abortion,” and the storming “American Bad Ass,” a brand new track based around a sample extracted from Metallica’s timeless “Sad But True.” “It’s pretty f***ing awesome,” said Metallica drummer (and Kid Rock confidant) Lars Ulrich of “American Bad Ass” in Rolling Stone. “To my ears, this is as good as it gets.” The album features Kid Klassics like “Oedipus” and “Prodigal Son,” which Rock re-recorded after finding that the original masters for his second LP, “THE POLYFUZE METHOD,” had gone missing. “THE HISTORY OF ROCK” also features cleaned-up tracks from Kid’s pre-“DEVIL…” release, “EARLY MORNIN’ STONED PIMP,” such as the Superfly-flavored “E.M.S.P.,” the cool-flowing “Paid,” and the gangsta-styled “Ya’ Keep On.” After all, it was on these very cuts that the future Pimp Of The Nation mastered his verbal skills as well as honing the genre-busting jams that would soon blow the world’s doors open when brought to bear on “DEVIL WITHOUT A CAUSE.” The collection even dips into Rock’s personal collection with the very early-days demos, “Dark And Grey” and “Born To Be A Hick.” “That’s where I was,” Rock notes with pride, “and I want the kids to hear that.” Details:
