Rockin' Aldo

Rocker to the bone

(Rebel Music Records)



One hardly need wait 'til track 20 - a chain-swinging cover of Cavan's 1982 "Hey Teenager" - to dig Aldo's blood-affinity with finger-popping drapes who march shoulder-to-shoulder along cobbled boulevards. All tunes preceding throw out identifiers: solid downbeats, twangs of mixed Hillbilly/Blues parentage, concise architectures that alternately cruise, swing, and stomp. Atop all that strides a man whose no-compromise delivery and Rebel posture indicate he swallows handfuls of Bop Pills when e'er the little red rooster crows.

Recommended: "Be Bop Baby," "Crazy Bop Boogie,"  "Rocker to the Bone," "Singular Woman," "I'm Gonna Tell on You," "My Love for You," "Red-Hot Mama," "Leave This Old Town," "Rockin' Guitar Man," "Both Wheels Left the Ground," "Rock 'n' Roll Will Never Die," "Hey Teenager"

Videos: "Be Bop Baby"   "Rocker to the Bone"   "I'm Gonna Tell on You"   "Both Wheels Left the Ground"
