Teaze - "Body Shots" |

|

"Body Shots" was the fourth album by Canadian hard rockers Teaze for the
Aquarius Records label. Originally released in 1980, "Body Shots" was to
become the bands final record before breaking up in 1981.
The album was a
strong effort and consisted of eleven hard rock styled songs all written by
the band members in the similar style to those on the previous albums.
Again no single was released from the album but Canadian fans still
supported the band . The commercial failure of the band's previous album
,"One Night Stands" and the loss of their U.S. record label the hopes of
becoming international stars had been dashed and the band took this very
hard. The music world was changing and hard rock was just not popular any
more ( little did the band know that there would be a big resurgence in
hard rock music by the mid 80's) it was too late for Teaze and within six
months of the release of "Body Shots" the band broke up. Perhaps if Teaze
stuck it out for another couple of years they could have regained the glory
days of the late 70's, Teaze was a band that was just ahead of its
time.

Ironically the band is still popular in Canada and their only
hit, "Sweet Misery" ( from the "On The Loose" album) is still in rotation
on most Canadian oldies rock stations.
This release by Unidisc, is a
straight reissue of the original Aquarius Records album at a budget price
complete with original artwork but unfortunately it contains no bonus tracks.
