Review from Blackcat Rockabilly:
What I'm holding in my hands right now is truly a gem. My constant readers already know that I'm a huge fan of British rock 'n' roll, bands like Flying Saucers, Shotgun, CSA, Wild Angels and Crazy Cavan have been on my favourite list for 30+ years, and now add The Ravens to that list.
This band has been around for a quite some time, but this only their second album. The first one being "Long Live Rock 'n' Roll" (Q.S.E. Records, 1991), on which my good friend Wild Bob Burgos also played. And here we see that British rock 'n' roll is like a family, because Wild Bob, Dave and Rob are also members of that other British legend "Shotgun", and Dave & Bob were also on the Wild Angels album "Rockin' On The Railroad". This album consists of 11 studio tracks, recorded in 1997/1998 in South London and 6 live tracks recorded in Dartford, Kent, in 2006.
A good choice of repertoire, ranging from covers by Hank Williams, Gene Vincent, Sonny Burgess and many more, to a great track called "Back Street Boogie", penned by Dave Briggs. I love this album, I just love South London Rock 'n' Roll, and all you have to do enjoy it too is PLAY IT LOUD, VERY LOUD!"
