A short-lived but vital chapter in British hard rock, Tiger united renowned session guitarist Big Jim Sullivan with powerhouse vocalist Nicky Moore for a thunderous, riff-forward debut that bridged blues-based hard rock and the rising wave of early heavy metal. Formed in the mid-1970s as the studio era gave way to self-contained bands, Tiger captured the grit, muscle, and studio finesse of two veterans stepping into the spotlight. The album surges with crunchy guitars, robust grooves, and commanding vocals, reflecting the cultural shift from behind-the-scenes craftsmanship to artist-driven expression. Frequently cited among Sullivan’s career highlights, this debut stands as a compelling document of proto-metal evolution—raw, melodic, and steeped in the swagger of classic British rock.

Big Jim Sullivan ranks among the most prolific and respected guitarists in British popular music, reputed to have played on hundreds of singles—including dozens of UK number ones—for artists ranging from the Walker Brothers to Small Faces and film composer John Barry. After years dominating the session scene, Sullivan pivoted to a bandleader role in the mid-1970s with Tiger, recruiting vocalist Nicky Moore, later celebrated for his powerful presence in the early heavy metal and hard rock landscape. Their collaboration fused top-tier studio experience with a raw, road-ready sound, yielding a muscular, guitar-driven approach that presaged heavier trends while honoring classic blues-rock roots.
