Track by Track Review
|
 |
Side One |
 |
Don't Knock The Rock
Drums start this cut. Some chiming guitar rises up to drive the piece forward. This a bouncy, fun little number that works well. |
 |
Choo Choo Ch' Boogie This little rock and roller does have a bit of a train vibe to it. Although, with that title, would you expect anything else. I dig the horn work on this. The killer clean guitar soloing is a great touch, too. I like this piece a lot. It has some jazz in the mix and really works so well. |
 |
Hot Dog Buddy Buddy While I love the wailing horn on this rock and roller, the cut isn't as strong as some of the others here. |
 |
Rip It Up This song feels like one of the band's biggest hits, "Rock Around the Clock." It has some jazz in the mix and works reasonably well/ |
 |
I'll Be With You In Apple Blossom Time A bit mellower and slower, tune, some of the guitar work on this, particularly the solo, calls to mind surf music. The track is a classy number that brings some variety to the table. |
 |
Side Two |
 |
Teenager's Mother (Are You Right?)
I love the guitar fills on this cut. The tune has a cool rock and roll groove. It's one of my favorites here. |
 |
Goofin' Around I love the smoking hot guitar work on this killer old-school rock and roll instrumental. This is a highlight of the set and a lot of fun. |
 |
Hook, Line And Sinker A bit of a "by the numbers" piece, this is a fun rock and roller. |
 |
Calling All Comets Another instrumental, this is packed with some tasty jamming and a lot of energy. |
 |
Caldonia This is another straight ahead old-school rock and roller. It's a bit of an "also ran" on the set, really. |
