Details:
The Wailin' Elroys from Athens, Ohio, U S A are a three men band with rhythm guitar, upright bass and a solo guitar and their kind of music is between classic Country Music and primitive 1950s styled Rockabilly and Rock'n'Roll Music. The voice of Bram Riddleberger comes very close to Wayne Hancock's voice and especially by the slower, more moody tracks like Goodnight To No One, Broke Down Pick-up Truck Blues or Cheap Motel, you might think that Hank Williams is talkin' to you! 10 of the 12 tracks are written by Bram Riddleberger and the other two titles are cover versions. I mean nearly every Rockabilly band tries to cover Eddie Cochran's Twenty Flight Rock and most of the versions which are going ´round our world simply suck and may be useful for our grandmothers' Rock'n'Roll Revival parties, but their version is something special and goes right into your knees and will definitely touch you somehow - I mean they really made their own interpretation of this Golden Oldie song and that's the thang !! Their second cover is the Ramones song Havanna Affair with a mean and evil guitar, a real pumpin' bass and a tremendous powerful also mean and evil voice!! If these three cats should play your town sometime you better go and get a ticket for the show, because they play real live Hillbilly- and Rockabilly music like it should be played. It comes from their heart and that's what you'll feel if you listen to the first beats of this silverplate!! For me one of the best if not the best today's releases!!
