This long-awaited treatise on Montrose and Gamma is first and
foremost the story of the five Montrose and four Gamma records,
their making and baking, the hirings and firings, the superlative
delivery live. Within the detailed analysis, one of course gets to
celebrate with the author Montrose classics like `Rock the Nation',
`Make it Last', `Rock Candy', `Bad Motor Scooter', `I Got the
Fire', `Matriarch' and `Jump on It', along with the entirety of the
Gamma years, including the top-shelf Gamma 2, an album Popoff
considers the equal to the earth-shattering first Montrose album of
1973. But there's a darker turn to this extensive tribute as well,
as we look at Ronnie's shocking suicide in 2012, before we correct
the record, so to speak, looking at his legacy as articulated by
those who played with him and knew him best. All told, it's a rough
ride, with unsettling doses of negativity, but once our tale winds
down, there are more than enough lessons on creativity to satisfy
any lover of the arts, particularly those centred around the type
of six-string mayhem cooked up by the hero of our story, Ronnie
Montrose.
