Rockpile

[statsman 5532]

Couple of English dudes- Dave Edmunds and Nick Lowe- playing rockabilly. Pretty great, as I have my Alexa playing them.

For about one year I could not get "Crawling from the Wreckage"  out of my head.

Rockpile are legit. Both of those guys have pretty good solo work too

And Terry Williams on drums, who went on to play in Dire Straits among others.  His work on that Live Alchemy album is incredible.  Never mind Billy Bremner who has played with just about every British act since the late 70s.  Add in Carlene Carter, Kelly Willis, and the Pretenders?  Yep.  Those two guys are pretty good as well.   

My favorite:

Minor deviation:  what was the session where Albert Lee was tracking while Edmunds & Lowe were watching?  

[G650 14305]

Sweet Little Lisa

[G650 14305]

Huey Lewis was there too drunk as fuck.

Thanks, that was it.  Amazing.

Albert Lee was ridiculously good.

 

I forgot Phil Lynott was there too, so rad.

Been a big fan for many, many years.  Crawlin', Teacher, Queen of Hearts, Nothin' But Fine, and especially I Knew the Bride.  Edmunds is nearly 80.  He and Lowe made some really great rockabilly together.

If you can find Albert's self-titled album from 1982, pick it up.  I can't find any evidence on youtube but the thing is incredible.   His version of Sweet Little Lisa.

Wait.  Found this on.  He also does two great John Hiatt songs.
