Back In the Day, 2008

Crazy Cavan & the Rhythm Rockers

C'mon, Let's Fuckin' Rock

(Crazy Rhythm)




By the time this volatile document perched on shop shelves, Cavan Grogan and his chain-swinging mates had enjoyed Ted deification for decades. Their embrace of not only the uncompromising music but concommitant swaggering lifestyle merited no less. Lyndon Needs's guitar approach was to employ it as either savage and twanging agent -- in which case he tore up strings with frantic vigor -- or smoothly harmonic ally, depending upon the moment's demand. At the fore arched Cavan, tousled hair cascading down forehead and massive, bristly sideburns framing his angular features, giving lusty vent to rollick in inimitable spectacle. 

Recommended: "Groovy At the Movie," "Teddy Boy Blues," "Bing Bong Boogie," "Who the Fuck Do Ya Think," "Bye Bye Bo Diddley," "This Heart's On Fire," "Tailor Made," "Cool As My Baby," "She's Alright," "Don't Knock What You Don't Understand"
