Roy Williams of Nervous Records remembers well when
our heroes were trying to get signed, in typical fuzzy
rockabilly folklore style the details are just that,
fuzzy, but he does recall a piss-up of monumental
proportions at a gig downstairs at the Clarendon
organised by a woman unknown who promised free booze
for interested parties. Mission accomplished Roy does
not remember getting home.
Not long after and all things were rockin along quite
nicely in the Texans camp with their growing legion of
fans treated to the release of 'Sodbusters', a cracker
of an album, hard to pigeon hole not psychobilly with
not a hint of a graveyard, Zombie or Vampire not
rockabilly, but a slap bass driven party album with
what would become their trademark mix of all sorts of
styles.
Hard touring with the fan base building and the album
selling soon followed hot on the heels by new releases
'Los Me Boleros', live blaster 'Five Beans In the
Wheel', 'Saturnalia', ‘Blood Sweat and Beers’,
"Singing To The Moon", 'Aces and Eights', and
'Adventure'. |
