Hank Sundown & The Roaring Cascades
We Came Here To Rock
(Rockaround Records)




Hank and swinging cohorts dispatch an infectious drapes-and-creepers soundtrack, with more than cursory attention paid concordant subject matter. Translation: Listeners are in for standard Ted topics like cigar-waving braggadocio, velvet lapels, and scarlet sirens. It must be added, too, that their iteration of the subcultural style is sufficient to knock down public house walls.

Recommended: "We Came Here To Rock," "No Teddy Girls," "Teddy Boy Juvenile," "Tougher Than the Rest," "Across My Heart," "I Still Got Rock & Roll," "Teddy Boy," "Please Mr. Copper," "We Are Still Crazy," "So Long"
