Another solid album by Molly Hatchet from Jacksonville, FL. Southern blues/boogie hard rock with killers three lead guitars attack. To report the original lead vocalist come back (Danny Joe Brown) who had left the group due to health problems. The song "Fall of the Peacemakers" is one of their best songs (an atmospheric semi-ballad with beautiful lead guitars solos). The production of the album is not exactly the best and the sound is a bit flat compared to that of the first two albums.

No Guts...No Glory is an outstanding southern rock album with terrific lead guitars from Danny Jo Brown, Duane Roland, and Dave Hlubek.
These dudes are on par with Skynyrd and Blackfoot and sometimes surpasses them. If you like well played rockin southern blues you should like this.
"Fall of the Peacemakers" is a killer cut, actually in my top 50 all-time. So pour yourself two fingers of JB and play this platter loud. JonFox' review is pretty much right on.
HELL YEAH!
RIP Duane Roland RIP Dru Lombar
RIP Danny Joe Brown RIP Dave Hlubek
RIP Riff Wes RIP Steve Hollandt

With big, bad Danny Joe Brown back in the saddle and ridin' shotgun once more with Molly Hatchet in 1983, the Jacksonville-based group released No Guts... No Glory. Brown was missed in a major way during his hiatus, as Jimmy Farrar held down the fort. From the off, Danny Joe's rough 'n' ready pipes augment the killer Hatchet three guitar assault, as the tight trio of Dave Hlubek, Duane Roland and Steve Holland lock-in and kick ass throughout the majority of the nine song No Guts... No Glory LP.
Produced by the ever-steady Tom Werman, No Guts... No Glory featured a new Molly Hatchet rhythm section, as bassist Riff West and drummer B.B. Bordan debuted during the studio sessions.
With a kickin'-up-dust, pistol packin' album cover shot of the group gracing the front sleeve of Molly's fifth album, there was no doubting the fact that Danny Joe and company were dialed-in during the recording of No Guts... No Glory. Album opener "What Does it Matter?" packs Blackfoot-like muscle, which segues into the chainsaw guitar riffin' of "Ain't Even Close". The strong pair of intro tracks give way to "Sweet Dixie", a stars 'n' bars rebel roar for Southern boogie, which takes on a Lynyrd Skynyrd vibe.
Side one of No Guts... No Glory closes with vengeance with the eight-minute "Fall of the Peacemakers". The epic, building number is Southern rock gold. Penned by Hlubek, "Fall of the Peacemakers" commands attention for the riveting guitar work. The heartfelt number was recently praised by the scibes at Classic Rock magazine, as "Peacemakers" was listed as the sixth greatest Southern rock song ever recorded, eclipsed only by...
05 Black Crowes - "Remedy" (1992)
04 Blackfoot - "Highway Song" (1979)
03 ZZ Top - "La Grange" (1973)
02 Allman Brothers Band - "Ramblin' Man" (1973)
01 Lynyrd Skynyrd - "Free Bird" (1973)
From my perspective, The Outlaws' "Green Grass and High Tides", and the Allman Brothers' "Whipping Post" definitely warrant inclusion as well, but both were missing-in-action, as the Classic Rock writers must have been hitting the bottle of Wild Turkey hard as they collectively compiled the songs.
Two of the remaining numbers from No Guts... No Glory were composed by outsiders, and to no surprise are the weakest cuts from the entire recording, with the mellow "Kinda Like Love" serving as nothing more than filler. By contrast, Molly Hatchet get back to business on the playin'-by-my-own-rules "Under the Gun", and the lethal "On the Prowl". A five-minute instrumental workout entitled "Both Sides" brings No Guts... No Glory to a potent close, with gun fire guitar work sparking the track which brings to mind The Outlaws.
KNOCK IT BACK!

There's a hell of a lot of people out there who think that "Freebird" is the greatest southern rock song ever written or recorded...these are the people who've never heard "Fall of the Peacemakers".

Fall of the Peacemakers is Moly Hatchet's "Free Bird". Wonderful!!
