What a time to be a gal, hey? One in space, one in the presidential race, and one who plays metal guitar fast and mean enough to make big boys in black leather pull their chest hair in desperation. Yessir, fellas, you can take those zucchinis out of your pants now: Lita Ford is proving that genitals don’t play rock guitar.
Also true that good rock guitar playing doesn’t promise a good career; Ford, 25, is sweating out that part of the problem now. Dancin’ On The Edge is her second solo album, and it’s going to be a fistfight to get it up in the high spots on the charts where the elite of heavy metal polish their leather and count their money. Especially with Lita’s infamous past like a (different kind of) rock hanging around her neck.
