Search - The Queen Annes :: Something Quick 1980-1985

Something Quick was originally released on cassette in 1986. This edition is remastered and restored to its full glory, with 6 bonus tracks added. Why put out this old pre-grunge Seattle stuff now? Easy. It rocks like the devil himself. It must be heard. The Queen Annes started out as Bellevue, WA high school lads who wanted to rock hard in the pre-grunge days of Seattle. Now, though mostly retired to their country estates, they play upon occasion both as themselves and their alter ego blues band, Last of the Steam Powered Trains.Seattle's Rocket magazine, in their Northwest Top 100 of All-Time (1988 version) described the This Is That 45 rpm single thusly: ''At its peak this pile driving foursome put on awe-inspiring live shows and this 1983 seven-inch captured the group's early Who-meets-Zeppelin approach in fine fashion. Grab the terrific Something Quick cassette.'' --The Rocket - Scott McCaughey (Young Fresh Fellows).
