One
of the great joys of music is variety. There are so many wonderful styles of
tunes, why not dive into the buffet?
When
you want old school, kick butt, party on down, stomp your stereo good time rock
and f’ing roll, Alright by the Gypsy Moths is a classic.
Putting
this album on is putting a sweat soaked, dance filled, juke joint, rock and
roll dive bar awesome good time into your stereo.
I
like this record so much I have it as both a CD and vinyl record. Which do I
prefer? Well in this instance it’s very much the vinyl album. While the CD is
great for the car, the grooves of this collection of songs cry out for the
action of a needle driven sound system. Plus there’s a great photo inside the
album with fun pictures of the band boozing it up as they rip up the stage of
every bar they play at!
The
production on the album is smooth enough to not lose its much need rock grit.
All the instruments and vocals are well positioned in the mix with nothing
drowning anything else out. This is no small feet given the rich sound that the
band has going on.
What
more can I say about this awesome slice of classic rock and roll tunes? Well
here’s a personal bit, I have been fortunate enough to follow the musical
career of Chris Conway and Steve O’Brien for many years, and this band is the
best I have ever seen either of them perform in. Great job guys!
Ok this isn’t a
cut from the album, but it will give you a taste of the fabulous tunes waiting
for you if you dive in:
Here’s where you can buy the album:
Yours in rock and roll with teeth,
