| Jed Clayton & The Rockabouts |
| Este nuevo combo de Eskilstuna, Suecia,
ofrece R&R como se hacía en los 50's, pero no son una más
de esas bandas que intenta recrear el estilo auténtico. Grabado
en los estudios de Tail Records con equipo vintage, este CD es una
mezcla de Rockabilly, R&R y Country en incluso alguna balada en
14 temas escritos por la banda, algo no muy usual actualmente. The
Rockabouts prueban que cuando se trata de 50's R&R no todo está
ya dicho. Jed Clayton writes: Just a question of enjoying music with your body and soul Just the other day I had a coffee with a friend of mine. As usual we spoke about the main topics in a man´s life.with other words: women, classic cars, liquer and last.music. We sat there and discussed the importance of music and figured what a drag things would be without this perceptional, amazing phenomenon, all just based on a beat.called music! It simply gives a meaning to life, helps you to get into trouble as well as out of it.or let´s think of it as the core of all existential belief As so many times before we finally came to the part of the subject when you ask yourself why so many people obviously don´t really care or give a damn about what kind of music they listen to, or; how come that real rock´n´roll has become such a minor part of the cultural scene!?. You can hear people say: Well I dig music.I´m a real musicfan, I listen to the music they play on the radio.Why the heck don´t they straighten up and get themselves some hot wax with some rhytm & blues, doo-wop, pure ol´rustic rockabilly or why not true rock´n´roll!? Sometimes things simply don´t get any better than the fundamental stuff built on the original ideas. When I play some of this to friends of mine, who have not experienced the rock phenomenon, they always end up with smiles on their faces asking; now what is this !? What a beat!!!Where do you get these records? Now
this is the part that really pisses me off! Let´s ask ourselves
the simple question: What kind of music do the radiostations really
play!? 95% if not more of the stuff that they broadcast, sounds
like a noise inferno or a totally mainstream thing, without a sign
of any soul or any musical concept. Nowadays the musicindustry is
really controlling radiostations, and have the power to promote
whatever crap they have decided that is going to sell. And as always
they are able to pull off the whole deal just because people are
so mixed up and just buy or listen to whatever is being served.
Ok ..allright , that´s the way it has always worked.they had
the Payolacandal in the states during the rock´n´roll
era as well.you probably think that the kid won´t be able
to sort this out.history simply repeats itself. Well. I´m Due to my opininon it´s all just a question
of being a critical, but a creative listener. If you really try
to get into the music, understand it , taste it like a good old
wine, you will be able to see and feel that the Hope to see you out there! Best regards Jed Clayton |

| Hello there music lovers! I won´t start nagging about modern music this time, since this will probably only be read by people with a feeling for genuine rhythm anyway. Since I reconstructed the band in the late autumn of 2000, there has been a lot of changes both in the line up and choice of music styles and influences once more! I guess its just meant that way never being sure of where you end up. Fate finally always seem to catch up with you, huh!? .and there´s hardly anything you can do about it. Still I´ve had the opportunity to work with some of the best musicians and friends I´ve ever met. The
theme behind Jed Clayton & the Rockabouts now seems to have
transformed from being all about a basic "good ol´rockabilly
band" into a multi variety ensemble with more wild ideas and
achievements than there are hours in a day. The last recording sessions
and moments of studio work always seem to turn out somewhat of a
game of improvising and experimenting with all kinds of stuff. I
think we managed to mix Is there any need to say that we found ourselves
having an incredibly good time doing this!? The future might bring
just anything so we´ll probably just go on and see what happens
as I said; It all seems |
