Free Music Notes for American Music
Free Music Review: WOW...too cool..for a 1st album
Hit: 5 Stars
This is definitely great rockabilly. These guys must have been amazing to watch. Very cool... I like their live album even better. The music is somewhat repetitive but has energy that so much other stuff lacks.
American Music Poster
Americana--a mixture of folk, rockabilly, blues, country, Cajun, and other roots music--is now a well-established radio and industry genre, and this is the album that almost single-handedly created it. When the Blasters, fronted by brothers Phil and Dave Alvin, came roaring out of Downey, California, during the heyday of punk back in 1977, many considered them a throwback, but once the savage energy of this band hits you, it's obvious they ain't no wannabes. They took every style considered corny and unhip by the new wave generation, and in a magical burst of inspiration, turned it into something that never goes out of style--high octane, pedal-to-the-metal rock & roll. Luckily, Rollin' Rock's Ronnie Weiser had the wisdom to rush them into the studio and capture them at the height of their creative frenzy. Now classic Dave Alvin tunes such as "Marie Marie" and the title track rub up against chestnuts like the Hollywood Flames' "Buzz Buzz Buzz," and sparks fly. This long-overdue reissue includes seven tracks that never made it onto the original vinyl, to give you 19 raw and raunchy tracks that sum up the past, present, and future of American music. --j. poetAlternative Rock Music CDs
