says he was haunted by the Seventies rock band Free when he was writing his new song “Hard Working Man.” King ain’t lying.
The high-octane track explodes with an FM radio chorus, a chunky guitar riff, and enough cowbell to satisfy, “Hard Working Man” sounds as if it arrived in the year 2022 by way of a bitchin’, time-traveling 1970 Camaro.and Paul Rodgers were really big influences at the time,” King tells, singling out the band’s doomed guitarist and the future Bad Company singer. “Everywhere I went, I couldn’t avoid Paul Kossoff riffs. It was just deep in my cranium.
El Dorado is one of my favorite albums. I had it on repeat during the pandemic shutdown. Excited to hear the new album!
