V/A

Attack of the Rockin' Zombies   digital

(Blue Century Records)



"Who's this crazy wise guy, said Rock'n'Roll was dead?," demands Billy Taylor, in an agile exploit accompanied by similarly spooky renderings purveyed by hep creepy-crawlies. "I'm the monster Rock'n'Roll," growls Freddie Pinkhard, in guest turn with snap combo Billy Ford and the Thunderbirds, personifying the culture-jarring creature that knocked stultifying straighties flat off their tintypes. In some undefinable manner, primitive ambiance intensifies playfully eerie character.

Recommended: "Zombie" (The Salmas Brothers), "Screamin' Ball (At Dracula Hall)" (The Duponts), "Wombie Zombie" (Billy Taylor & the Teardrops), "Night of the Vampire" (The Moontrekkers),  "Youngster Meets Monster" (Danny Zellas Rockers), "Janie Made a Monster" (The Fabulous Five), "Rockin' Zombie" (The Crewnecks)

Videos: "Screamin' Ball (At Dracula Hall)"   "Wombie Zombie"   "Janie Made a Monster"   "Rockin' Zombie"
