Killer on the Rampage by Eddy Grant
Killer on the Rampage is an album by Eddy Grant, released in 1982. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 23 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Electric Avenue”, on 23 lists with a best position of #104.
Killer on the Rampage, Eddy Grant's sixth album, came out on 15 November 1982 through Ice and Portrait, and it's the record that gave the Guyanese-born former Equals man his biggest international hit. Grant, a singer, writer, producer and multi-instrumentalist with a knack for blending genres and a conscience in his lyrics, built these songs on sticky funk grooves, synth bass and plenty of space.
"Electric Avenue" is the one everybody knows: a rubbery, synth-driven strut with a dance-floor bounce, and it climbed to number 2 in both the US and the UK. "I Don't Wanna Dance" went all the way to number one in Britain, and the album itself reached the top 10 on both sides of the Atlantic, still his most successful set.
