The Hangover is the second solo album by the former Guns N' Roses guitarist Gilby Clarke, released in 1997.[3][4] Clem Burke and Eric Singer played on the album.[5]
Critical reception
[edit]The Hartford Courant called the album "pretty dull stuff best suited for Harley dudes."[6] Guitar Player wrote: "A devotee of the New York Dolls and T Rex, Gilby goes straight for the jugular on 'Punk Rock Pollution', a sarcastic swipe at three-chord wannabes."[7]
AllMusic deemed the album "an endearing collection of hard rock indebted to glam, sleazy boogie and blues-rock."[2]
