Although this is a known title, don’t be fooled as these rockers know about rockabilly , has been involved since the 80s, with singles of ‘I wonder’ and ‘we play tonight’ and a collection in 2009, Jim in this time has been between bands and a solo career ‘so defiantly have the skill and knowledge of the scene and done their own arrangements and composition of this track.,which has been recorded live and mixed buy Thomas ‘tumppi’ lundberg, a wonderful full on blues neo rockabilly raucous bopper, tons of character and energy to follow.
Good Rockin Daddy.
So we start off with a driving pacey power chord opening , revved up blues crunch on guitar for few bars in to bass drum beat and little drum power roll, rockin this record straight in, opening the path for Jims vocals of authority, brill guitar higher octave fill, and end bars drum fills, and a wild heavy identifiable slapping bass, full of energy, and his texture fill, cymbal crashes to give body to individual sections, the vocal through-out with their own unique dynamics , like powered natural echo, and having the band enjoy themselves with their carefully structured sound. brilliant little pauses , jump starts the involvement of sound to myself is like a splendid mixture of blues rockabilly gothabilly hint of psycho, and underlying country, …have I missed anything… quiet possibly.
Well now then, a lot to be said, and all fantastic, if you like …love music and want its own raw edge, this is the time to jump on and grab, this is going up in the little category this year of a few of the must get them, full of personality, I wouldn’t imagine you’ll regret getting it, and will want more
