Hipbone Slim Vs. Sir Bald Diddley
Hipbone Slim Vs. Sir Bald Diddley
For your aural delectation, we have assembled no less than four of the Bald Bomber's top notch musical combos on this 40 track long set, which runs the full gamut of rock'n'roll styles. On the first of this two-CD set you will find 20 cuts, previously unreleased on compact disc format, by HIPBONE SLIM & THE KNEETREMBLERS, a band that plays proper rock'n'roll! Alongside Sir Bald (aka Hipbone Slim) is Bruce Brand (drums), one of Britain's if not the world's finest rock'n'roll drummers, a veteran of such bands as THE MILKSHAKES and THEE HEADCOATS, alongside Billy Childish, as well as Holly Golightly's band, THE MASONICS, and more. Gastus Receedus (bass/harmonica), has played in many a band (BIG WIGS, AROUSERS, PLAYBOYS, etc) and worked with many a rock'n'roll legend. Meanwhile, on the other disc in this super-deluxe set, you will find LOUIE & THE LOUIES, THE KNEEJERK REACTIONS and THE LEGS. This really is a true battle of the bands! Albeit in a somewhat schizophrenic' manner! LOUIE & THE LOUIES, as the name might suggest play frat rock type tunes and surf instrumentals.
