Rough & Ready Sleazy Records SRCD09 Bow Legged Daddio-Cats Was A Jumpin'-Couldn't Sleep Last Night-Flathead Ford-Slow Down Baby-No Gasoline-Mr. Guitar-Gettin' By Jus' The Same -Three Alley Cats-Party In Room 109 Here is a new short ten tracks Cd from the one-man band Slim Sandy for the spanish Sleazy Records. Slim is part of a today one-man trend with people like Bloodshot Bill, Scott H. Biram, Sheriff Perkins, The Legendary Tiger Man, Mark Sultan, Muskrat, Mr. Bonz, Urban Junior, Reverend Beat Man, The Fabulous Go-Go Boy and Rizorkestra just to name a few of them. But most of these guys are on the trashy side and are influenced more by Hasil Adkins or the sixties garage sounds than Doctor Ross or Harmonica Franck. Slim with his guitar, harmonica, and suitcase drum is on the rockabilly, blues and hillbilly side. This album “Rough & Ready” with his eight self-penned songs and two covers (John Worthan’s “Cats Was a Jumpin’” and Roy Hall’s “Three Alley Cats” even if his “Flathead Ford” is very similar to Papa Lightfoot’s “Mean Old Train”) will delight the raw and primitive sound lovers. The last track “Party in Room 109” is a song Slim wrote based on the events that happened in room 109 at the Red Hot and Blue Rockabilly Weekender 2006. Don’t have to tell you that there were a lotta booze, yellin’ and savage rock’n’roll involved (have a look at this video) David "Long Tall" Phisel         This is Slim Sandy Crow-Matic Records Don’t Need Nuthin’ - 7 Nights To Rock - Come Back Baby - Bicycle Boogie - You Can’t Fool Me - Cabin By The Creek - California Blues - Down In Kokomo - The Way You Dance - Rock It All Night This cd offers 10 cuts (three covers and seven originals) recorded live by the one man hillbilly blues band. Harmonica, guitar, drums and vocals all played in the same time by the same man. As its nickname says Slim Sandy’s inspiration goes from blues (Doctor Ross’ Come Back Baby) to hillbilly (a great rendition of Jimmie Rodgers’ California Blues with yodel) with a lot of Hasil Adkins and Rock’n’roll in between. Sandy’s own are great too and well written. Sure the sound is raw, but you don’t expect a one man band sounding like a Phil Spector production, do you? I can only encourage you to go to www.slimsandy.com to order your own copy of this cd (it’s only $10), and while you’re there why don’t you order other Peter Sandmark related stuff like The Howlin’ Hound Dogs or The Crazy Rhythm Daddies. Believe me, you can’t go wrong with this guy ! Fred "Virgil" Turgis
