"Wild Billy Childish and his Headcoats bring a typhoon that will whirl through your body and soul, and before you know it, you'll be dancing the go-go in white knee boots and putting on the frosted eyeshadow your mother always warned you about.From the first tune, "Man Trap," the blood will start pumping. Later on in, "I Don't Like the Man I Am" you'll be agreeing with him. In "Pokerhuntus Was Her Name", a soulful song done by Thee Headcoatees, the girls who live the Headcoats life, you'll see what Disney left out of the movie. The short hip-shaking, body-twisting tunes become ingrained in your memory, cropping up at bizarre times. Shopping during the holiday season, try singing, "The Reindeer are Wild" at the mall-Santas and see if they won't join in. "Headcoat Man" should be an anthem of youth--all young men and women should want to be Headcoats!Simply constructed tunes, insistant beats, and the roots of rock, rockabilly, and Billy himself bring music back to what it should be--a GOOD TIME!"
