 Johnny Jetson

Lick It and Split

Mp3 (self)


Johnny is Rock 'N' Roll personified. And he's got the chops to validate the claim made by dashing '70s elan. Vocals recall Bolan.

Recommended: "American Knight," "I Gotta Get Through," "Light 'em Up," "Overheated," "Rock 'N' Roll Girl," "Shadows On The Moon," "Shine You Up," "Sunday After Church," "Turn It Out"

(Cleopatra)




The infamous 1960s God Of Hellfire reinvents his hit, a sinister turn in the flower power decade. The flip's histrionics parallel that unnerving precedent.

Sloppy Jalopy /

Take On Me

(self)



Agreeably rollicking ode to a rat rod that, like its theme song, speeds economically to its cool destination. "Take On Me" is a moody instrumental reading of that '80s Aha tune.
