Heart - Private Audition/Passion Works (BGO) 1982/1983 The other track, To Long A Time is an early demo from 1976 of "Live Alive". Two bonus tracks are included with the remastered CD including a live cover of Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven", a band that obviously had a lot of influence on Heart. Who was the idiot who suggested that these two sisters were sexual lovers? Idiot! In retaliation and to relieve here anger, Ann returned to her hotel room and wrote the song "Barracuda". He made the statement based on a sexy ad that the band's former record company placed in Rolling Stone magazine. As the story goes, a reporter made a comment, backstage after a live appearance, that the sisters were sex partners. I always found the story behind "Barracuda" somewhat interesting. ![]() It's one of those all time classic rock and roll records. To many Heart fans, "Little Queen" is the quintessential Heart record, and I wouldn't necessarily disagree. Whether she is belting out a heavy rocker like "Barracuda" or singing along to something more acoustic and folksy, her voice is perfect. Vocalist Ann Wilson, who also performs flute and some keyboards on the album, has one of the most beautiful voices ever. The entire album is very earthy sounding, something that would disappear as the band entered the 80's and moved more towards glossy pop and big-hair hard rock. Much of "Little Queen" consists of folk-influenced, acoustic-oriented rock such as "Treat Me Well" and "Cry to Me." "Dream of the Archer" has an acoustic Zep-vibe. Despite the fact that "Barracuda" and "Kick It Out" are heavy rockers "Little Queen" is not a 70's heavy metal album by any stretch. "Little Queen" is a solid rock 'n' roll record from beginning to end. However, "Little Queen" is not a couple singles with a bunch of filler stuffed around them. "Kick It Out" is another hard rocker and fan favorite. Decades later and the song is still a regular player on rock radio across the globe. The song is about as heavy and hard hitting as Heart got. The album was hugely successful and produced one of their most popular hit songs, "Barracuda". They left Mushroom Records, with whom they released their first LP, and signed with Portrait Records. ![]() If you’d like to find out more about how you can get involved in Kick It Out’s 25-year anniversary, contact Robert Brown on visit their official website at or keep up to date with the organisation’s work at Twitter, Facebook or Instagram."Little Queen" was Heart's second studio album and their first on a major label.
