Living Colour
Jimi Hendrix meets Big Audio Dynamite, mosh pit optional. When they arrived on the scene, I thought Living Colour were the living end. The fusion of rap, metal, punk and rock (Anthrax, Fishbone, Ice Cube) was the future, wasn't it? Colour me corrected. For Vernon Reid's astonishing guitar work alone, the music of Living Colour belongs in the permanent archives. Vivid is the safest entry point; subsequent releases were both more confident and more confrontational.
