Shakin' the Cage is an album by Fleetwood Mac drummer Mick Fleetwood's spin-off band The Zoo, released in June 1992. The album features Bekka Bramlett who would join Fleetwood Mac the following year as well as two of Fleetwood Mac's touring musicians, the former past and the latter future: Isaac Asante and Brett Tuggle. [1] The title track was co-written by then-Fleetwood Mac member Billy Burnette. The album was chiefly written by Australian star Billy Thorpe who features in the band.
Fleetwood had recorded with The Zoo since 1983 and released the album I'm Not Me that same year with the band. [2] Thorpe joined The Zoo in 1990 as their lead singer and primary songwriter; all of the songs on the album were either co-written or solely written by Thorpe. [3] The Zoo was also augmented by Bekka Bramlett, who shared lead vocals with Thorpe both on the album and the accompanying tour. Fleetwood first encountered Bramlett while she was performing onstage with her father, Delaney Bramlett; he successfully lobbied her to join The Zoo after informing her of the band's touring commitments in Australia with Thorpe. [4]
The initial recording sessions took place at Thorpe's home studio in Encino, Los Angeles, where the vocals were also overdubbed. Additional sessions occurred at Ocean Way Recording; the music video for the title track was filmed in downtown Los Angeles. [4]
