ABOUT THIS ITEM

This isn't just a rock and roll covers album, this is a John Moore Rock And Roll Trio featuring The Loose Moorelles covers album. A Rock And Roll seance for the modern hipster, summoning the wild spirit of 1958 and letting it loose to wreak havoc once again. Be warned: Once you've heard this 'back to basics' collection of good time music, your activator will be rolled and there'll be no going back. Everything else will seem like a bad dream. Now comb your hair and put your cat clothes on. Rock and Roll is back. A primary school is a strange place to get one’s mojo back, but that’s exactly what happened to John Moore. Languishing in semi-retirement, mired in despair, and just a trifle bored, he was cajoled into performing at his daughter’s summer fete. Having run out of polite excuses as to why this might be rather difficult to achieve, a band of willing accomplices was hurriedly assembled to cure sugar-rushing tinies with some rocking pneumonia and a shot of rhythm and blues. A super group – of sorts came together containing the DNA of The Jesus and Mary Chain, Black Box Recorder, Lush, The Soledad Brothers (Ben Swank – now retired to Nashville) The Guardian Newspaper, and a Lady who’d last trodden the boards with Rod Stewart at Wembley Stadium.
The gig was a remarkable success and the band pledged to play a great deal more often. Fourteen months later The John Moore Rock And Roll Trio featuring The Loose Moorelles were at it again, this time for a slightly taller, differently intoxicated audience, in preparation for their two-day recording blitz the following weekend. Now with Loz Colbert of JAMC and Ride on drums the line up was complete.
