Album Review

Phoebe Snow a rock singer? Well, she certainly had the pipes, and producers Greg Ladanyi and Richie Cannata surrounded her with Billy Joel's backup band for a standard New York rock sound. With Snow contributing only three original tunes, the song selection was odd: Rod Stewart's "Gasoline Alley," the Buckinghams/Cannonball Adderley hit "Mercy, Mercy, Mercy," Bob Dylan's "I Believe in You." Rock Away sold better than her last two albums and produced two chart singles, "Games" (number 46) and "Mercy, Mercy, Mercy" (number 52). But anyone who had heard her first two albums knew that this was not the whole story by a long shot.
