Excitement you can feel
Looking at the photos of JOHNNY BURNETTE AND THE ROCK 'N ROLL TRIO, it is difficult to comprehend the excitement generated by the music.
I had to work today, and as I drove to work and walked for a work-related errand (OK, I walked to the police station to see who had committed crimes overnight), I listened to the trio in all of their 1950s, tearing-up-the-place glory.
The excitement of the music of Burnette, his bass-playing brother Dorsey and guitarist maestro Paul Burlison is palpable, despite the half century or so between these recordings and the present day.
I hummed these tunes all day long.
They are simple, direct and oh-so-memorable.
