"This is possibly the best Rockabilly band in years and years. The two albums they have are my two greatest buys. I know rockabilly, neo, traditional whatever, Ive listened for years..this is the real deal. If you are like me, enjoying a wide variety of rockabilly, this is the band you have been hoping to find, from high energy guitar riffs, growling vocals, this is the band. I guarentee this will be in your cd tray for weeks at a time. I cant say enough about Rockin Ryan and the Realgoners, except thank you! Keep rocking!"

Great late 50's style rock'n'roll and some rockabilly

"This cd captures Rockin' Ryan's wild and energetic stage presence, even though these are studio recordings. Ryan sings like a rockabilly star from around 1957, but without copying any particular 50's rockabilly icon, and therefore sounding original. This cd is different from his 1st lp, which sounded like mid 50's rockabilly, this cd is late 50's and even early 60's rock'n'roll ,with a few rockabilly and western swingy sounding tracks thrown in for good measure. The highlight of this cd is without a doubt his original "Spiderlegged Baby", where the witty lryics state "I was trying to kiss her lips, I was inbetween her hips... I was trying to kiss her face, I was inbetween her waste." A great cd, and it shows that Ryan is maturing wit hwach new release, here's looking forward to his next cd."

Modern Rockabilly at its Finest

I'll admit it; I was hooked after the first track. I was searching for some good Rockabilly music on the net a few weeks ago, when I first came upon this CD; I've been dipping my fingers in that genre for about two years now and, lately, its become a passion of mine.

One listen was all it took to transform me into a Rockin Ryan fan of the highest order. The man's got style, he's got class, and he knows how to rock with the best of them.

If you're in the mood for some good Rockabilly, or are just a Rock fan in general, give this CD a listen; you won't be dissapointed!"
