Voodoo Tones

Livin' Ain't Easy 4-track EP

(Cleopatra)

This troupe of heroic bearing hefted a pair of Creedence Clearwater Revival and Doors classics to fresh high station. And into the endeavor, they wrought two self-penned stunners of smack-down vivacity. To listen is to be absorbed. No volume is too high.

Lest readers suspect hyperbole, consider those responsible: CM Wolf, Djordje Stijipovic, Danny B. Harvey, and Slim Jim Phantom. Each is a master whose brilliance flares.

Woe be to any who face off with Rock'n'Roll.
