Slick River Rockets
That's Good Rockin'
(Crooked Creek Studios)
Folks on a first name basis with time clocks don't merely want bands like this - they need them. From Friday night on through the weekend, in a bar or social hall is where they party like forever teenagers. American musics that regular working stiffs crave (specifically, on-the-money Blues and Rock 'n' Roll with occasional Jazzy persuasion) are here proffered by players who, to a man, render each zazzed step just right under neon, Blue Ribbon-sign glow. (And Mickey was right: the girls do get prettier at closin' time.)
Recommended: "Shotgun," "Slick River Swing," "Hot and Saucy," "Too Old," "On the Riverside," "Trouble," "El Gato," "Rip it Up"
