    Is it Hitt Man or Hittman? Everywhere I look online it is spelled Hittman, but the vinyl I have in front of me clearly says Hitt Man on the album cover, spine, and liner notes. Which is it? These things are important to me people!
    This album was released in 1988.
    This is some quality American heavy metal from a little-known New York band. Vocalist Dirk Kennedy has a high, regal voice that reminds me of the likes of Midnight or Geoff Tate. The sound is tight, clean and metal to the core. Two particular favs are Breakout (a metal barnstormer) and Will You Be There? (a great heavy ballad). Apparently, Hitt Man went unnoticed in the U.S. due to poor availability and untimely trends. Worth checking out, especially if you dig Crimson Glory or Queensryche.
