Kevin Preston

Caprice / Close My Eyes / I Know Where I Stand

EP (Wild Honey)

A modern reimagining of rockabilly, a task previously essayed by Alan Vega and Tim Polecat. Kevin does it successfully (as did those predeccessors), by incorporating select elements into a contemporary body with up-to-date sensibilities. Witness the modified Paul Burlison ostinato of "Caprice."

Recommended: "Caprice," "Close My Eyes," "I Know Where I Stand,"

I agree about the Johnny Burnette comparison, but that was Grady Martin, not Paul
