SOULSUCKERS ON PARADE - CD SOULSUCKERS ON PARADE

Popis - SOULSUCKERS ON PARADE:
On CD comes a crucial, hitherto unheard slice of music recorded in the '80s by the late L.A. punk rock legend Jeffrey Lee Pierce and his band The Gun Club. Soulsuckers On Parade is a full-length 1984 Pierce solo recording drawn from an abortive session for the cowpunk compilation album 'Dont Shoot'. The vocalist is supported by an all-star unit comprising guitarist Deve Alvin, drummer Bill Bateman, the late pianist Gene Taylor (The Blasters) and bassist Jack Waterson of Green On Red. Chris D. (Flesh Eaters, who also produced the date) and The Gun Club's Kid Congo Powers guest on background vocals. Featured are covers of songs originated by Willie Nelson, Big Joe Turner and Creedence Clearwater Revival, a wacky, profane blues Pierce improvisation called 'New Way Of Walkin'' and the rampaging, demented 17-minute original 'Walkin' Down The Street (Doin' My Thing)'. This CD-version also includes bonus studio chatter and improvised jams.
