Henry & the Bleeders

Gone To Pot

(Western Star)



The dependably rousing combo celebrates its 20th anniversary; it seems years have only enhanced members' faculties. Expectedly, most compositions roar in strapping neo-Rockabilly manners and are thrown ear-ward with ample muscularity. But three less frenetic, rustically inclined essays also show themselves. Their inclusion attests to Henry & the Bleeders' conversance with an idiom beyond the much-loved stomping one.

Recommended: "Non-Stop Rockin'," "Backfire Baby," "Eggs For Breakfast," "Every Man's a Dog," "Offski Boogie," "Henry's Rag," "Cash Is King," "Crookeds With the Straights," "Gone To Pot"
