You like some old school good time music delivered with gusto? Try Scrapomatic, a side-project that was started ten years by Mike Mattison and Paul Olsen, playing R&B drenched songs. The "R" really means "Rhythm". Their latest effort is called Sidewalk Caesars, with a lot of drinking songs included. Yes, it's allowed to tap your feet and do some hand clapping. And just in case you are wondering: Derek Trucks does play on this one. No way he could resist to add some slide on an album on which his singer shines.
Sidewalk Caesars is released on Landslide Records.
Tracks:
- He Called My Name
- Drink House
- I Want The Truth
- Killing Yourself On Purpose
- Remember This Day
- Hook, Line & Sinker
- The Fire Next Time
- The Old Whiskey Show
- Drunken Spree
- Long-Haired State
- I Just Want To Hang Around
- Long Gone
- Good Luck With Your Impossible Dream
