Riff Raff (album)

Riff Raff is a 1984 album by Welsh rock musician Dave Edmunds.

However, compared to the pair's success with Information (which hit #51 on the Billboard 200 album chart and spawned a top-40 single in "Slipping Away"), Riff Raff was a commercial flop.

[5] "Something About You" failed to crack the Billboard Hot 100 (although it did hit #16 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart).

The majority of the tracks on Riff Raff are originals by Lynne, Edmunds, and band member John David.

Edmunds also covered the Paul Brady-penned "Steel Claw" which was originally recorded, with a tighter, more frenetic hard rock arrangement, by Tina Turner for her multi-platinum comeback effort, "Private Dancer", released just four months prior.
