Howlin' Ric & the Rocketeers

Covers 3

(Self-issued)



Shake up a beer and spray dancing revellers, because to quote P. Wolf: "This ain't nothin' but a house party." Bandcamp notes disclose all songs were recorded live in bassist Adam's living room. (Oh, to have been among the fortunate neighbors). Adam also mixed and mastered this EP. Ric and hip cohorts rip through six honking blasts of pure Rock'n'Roll with finger-popping R&B countenance. Interpreted at peak volume, these readings surely made walls quake.

 Recommended: "King Kong," "Blame It On Cain," "Sha La La La Lee," "Ain't No Pleasin' You," "16 Tons," "The Leader"

Video: (live in Finland last month, non-EP)
