World Boogie

"When the sun was a-settin on the 1980s a memphis howlin commenced and the guitars was out of tune and everyone had to stand on the whiskey licked floor and take their turn at the big drum or the mic. Tav Falco puts together a true crime life combo of Memphistophelean proportions...Jim Dickinson...Alex Chilton...the gals from the Hellcats. Put this coaster on and burn!"

At least the Live Performance was 5 stars

"Sometime in the late 80's I went to a Pather Burns performance on a riverboat in yes, Memphis TN. I happened to be living with friends of the bands. If I remember, The Hellcats warmed up for Pather Burns with their hip swaying guitar. Very Sexy! Then Tav wowed us with a great live performance that included his version of "Brazil", theme to the movie. It remains one of the most desired and elusive tracks for my collection.



I am not sure that this album captures that energy but I was there, swigging vodka at midnight in memphis."
