King Biscuit Boy's Mouth of Steel is available as MP3 download only at Amazon. Mouth of Steel has a take no prisoners version of Robert Johnson's Terraplane Blues which you can download for 99 cents to sample his music before purchasing the entire album. Biscuit Boy has another incredible album called Good 'Uns which he released in 1971 and his harmonica playing rivals Paul Butterfield for expressiveness.



----------------------

Ray Condo and the Hardrock Goners is available as a download at Amazon. It may be too hard core rockabilly for those who haven't been desensitized to the rough musical edges and corny lyrics of unadulterated rockabilly.

--------------------------------

The Shadows Platinum Collection is available as both a CD or download at Amazon. Beware of other Shadows collections with inferior sound quality. This collection is extraordinary because it showcases the eccentric musical influences of the Shadows like film noir soundtracks, secret agent spy movie themes, surf music, rockabilly and lounge music. Great guitarists like Pat Irwin of 8 Eyed Spy, Matt Ashman of Adam and the Ants and Bow Wow Wow, Billy Zoom of X and Miles Corbin of the Aqua Velvets and John Zorn all have paid tributes to the reverb soaked guitar atmospherics of Shadows guitarist Harry Webb.

---------------------------------


Vampyros Lesbos Sexadelic Party is available only in the cd format at Amazon. Be warned that the music is a whacked out cornicopia of strange musical sounds that are so bad they're good. You have to appreciate irony to get the point of the soundtrack. You can also purchase a DVD of Vampyros Lesbos, the 1969 Jesus de Franco sexpoitation film which has most of the sountrack on it, plus the added attraction of gratuitous nudity and bizarre fetish dancing by the exquisite Soledad Miranda.
