CD Reviews

When Daddy rocks off with you

James D. Morrow | Omaha,NE USA | 08/22/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"A great little band that only had two albums in America, both of which were little jewels. They mix a fifties doo wop style with a 70's rock swagger and come up winners. "Eagle Rock" and "Come Back Again" alone would make this worth picking up, but there are many other great tunes. The second disc has a rather perfunctory live performance that totally stumped me. I saw these guys (in a high school gym) in 1972 and they were blazing. Had the whole place jumpin'by midway through their set. There are a few decent new tunes at the end but I only listened to the live set once. Pretty tame. Overall, I'd still recommend that you pick up this or another best of set by Daddy Cool. Buried Treasure."
