This is the one and only release from the talented Tennessee band fronted by blues vocalist Joanna Dean. Songs such as “The Hunger”, “Eye Of The Storm” and “Bad Romance” jam. There is also a cover of Nazareth‘s “Love Hurts” that features a duet of Dean and Cinderella‘s Tom Kiefer. Keifer and band mate Eric Brittingham also helped write a couple tunes on this album, including “Love Is Blind” which would have felt at home on any Cinderella album.
Several of the songs on Code Of Honor (in which Dean was co writer on all but the Nazareth cover) dealt with heartfelt topics such as alcoholism and suicide, but the album went largely unnoticed. Bad Romance was talented and should have received more recognition. I give Code Of Honor two thumbs up!
