Blasting Off


Blasting Off is Red Lorry Yellow Lorry's fifth and final album. It was released on the Sparkhead independent record label in 1991. The band at this point consisted of Chris Reed and a completely new assortment of musicians. They recorded the LP in a Los Angeles studio. Reed broke up the band soon after.

Critical reception

The Rough Guide to Rock called it a "mediocre bookend for a band that once promised great things."
