The
Vince whos art adorns T-shirts, record covers, walls and skin
the world over is back to bother your ears. This time he lets loose
with full on voodoo rockabilly abandon, this where Vince Ray seems
most at home. This platter is really a split release, the first
nine tracks Vince is part of a basic trio and is howling the vocals
and getting some really nasty, in the rockabilly goodness sense
of the word, tunes out of his battered Gretsch, the rhythm section
includes Little Man Kurt from the Grit on slappin bass who
pile drives things along . The material is nothing
new but delivered in a style all Vinces own and just oozes
all the good things rockabilly should be about, sex, drugs, booze
and fast motors.
The last eight of the 17 tracks are out and out rockabilly from
Vern Vain & the Blue Vains (with a name like that how can you
fail) Vince takes the guitar duties and fuck he can twang it while
Vern croons songs about bartenders, poker and hillbilly hellcats,
seriously what more could you want?

Says
Vince, 'We dug up tracks from the vaults with Vern Vain and the
Blue Vains,including a long lost 7'' ep recored for Raucous many
moons ago and added some new tracks with Gaff and Kurt
(he of the mighty GRIT).
