    About this album

    Maverick shows George Thorogood & The Destroyers doubling down on their rowdy blues-rock formula with a tighter, more self-assured edge. Issued in 1985, the album pairs boogie-driven originals such as Gear Jammer and The Ballad of Maverick with tough, well-chosen covers including Willie and the Hand Jive and Crawling King Snake. It is best known for I Drink Alone, one of Thorogood’s biggest singles, which helped keep the band firmly in the rock mainstream during the mid-1980s. Built on fierce guitar riffs, bar-band momentum and Thorogood’s blunt vocal style, Maverick remains a solid snapshot of their American roots-rock appeal.
