Lee Rocker (Stray Cats) has released another new album ‘Black Cat Bone’ on Alligator Records. It is one of the best rockabilly albums I've heard in a long time!

There is not a bad song on it. Rocker is in fine voice and the rest of the band rise to the challenge.

There are thirteen songs, Rocker and band wrote all but two. Although his self penned song 'The Highway Is My Home' borrows heavily from Johnny Burnette's 'Lonesome Train', it's still cool.

Rocker makes ‘Lost Highway’ made famous by Hank Williams Sr. and Bob Dylan’s ‘One More Night’, his own.

Guitarists Buzz Campbell (Gretsch White Falcon) and Brophy Dale (Fleming, King and James Trussart guitars) are masters of rockabilly. And let’s not forget the great Jimmy Sage on drums.

Campbell & Dale play so well together, and the recording of their playing is impeccable. In fact this is one of the best recorded albums I have listened to in awhile.

Rocker’s stand-up bass has such dept and fullest, and they were able to get various drum tones. If you love rockabilly and great music, this will get repeated play in your CD/Mp3 player. All CD ordered via his site are autographed, mine is. http://www.leerocker.com/index.html

Very Cool! I will have to check it out.

I'm a big fan of Brian, Lee, and Jim all through their careers together and apart.
