1. She Got The Rhythm   2. Midnite Blues   3. You're Gone   4. Call Of The Rock'n'Roll

Sleazy Records / SRCD22-36

Great kind of letter of introduction for this Spanish new band with a CD including just 4 songs which I found much too short and has left me asking for more and wondering when a full lenght album will see the light of the day.

Classic good, old Rockabilly in three of the songs and a good touch of Country, but with a Rockabilly feeling, in "Midnite Blues". Two of the songs are penned by band members ("She Got The Rhythm" by Jesús López and "Call Of The Rock'n'Roll" by Héctor Quintero), while the other two are well chosen covers ("Midnite Blues" from Charlie Rich and "You're Gone" from Jimmy Lloyd), all of them very well played in my own opinion.

By the way, it is a new group, yes indeed, but its members come from different bands such as The Beerbellys, Pike Cavalero and so on.

A band to keep an eye on and to keep in mind for future releases. I've enjoyed a lot this brief CD. Well done!
