Lesly's Dynamite - Not As Usual (LP)
€25,00Quick ViewIf you like Bill Haley or Stargazers (the old Northern Band sound), you will definitely enjoy this longplayer. The ’normal’ quartet line-up is joined by saxophone and piano. Sometimes it sounds like a good white cover version of an R&B rocker (but they are only own songs!), sometimes there are a few jazz and swing elements, so that also friends of Ray Collins get their money’s worth. In between there are also some backing vocals. So the whole thing sounds like a very clean, professional recording from the 1950s, when the different styles united to form Rock’n’Roll. From the fast but danceable ”Hop and don’t stop”, guaranteed best suited for record-hop, to the ballad, everything is there.

Vintage Trouble - Heavy Hymnal (CD)
€18,00Quick View2023 release. History has proven that when the world is in flames, it ignites the empathetic artists to siren their words, music, and rhythm, to blanket our society’s fury and nurse scorched souls. The seemingly endless years of pandemic lockdown and social distancing, coupled with the turbulent plague of civil unrest and racial injustice, called on Vintage Trouble to step into their battle wear. Like so often before, they have spun records to drop onto the fighting grounds, with the intent to freeze the frame long enough to momentarily halt the warring world. And while at ease, we can freely choose to think before we strike or decide to retreat, rather than thoughtlessly charge into repeating history. This collection of heavy hymns is from the heart, and it provides a necessary rise to our ever reckoning.
