Notes


Interestingly, this record was released in Australia a few months before it was released in America, which gives you an indication of the peculiarities surrounding Loney's career. Nevertheless, this is a fine and funky record, drenched in echo and with a crude, instantly likable rockabilly feel that puts the pedal to the metal and doesn't back down. After all these years, Loney can still crank it out and kick up a fuss. Just listen to "Bip Bop Boom" and "Boy, Man!" and you'll see what I mean.
