Now, I’m sure some of you may have seen YouTube clips of LBCP. The one that dragged me in was Lb’s Truth. In that video, the camera is on LB who is ripping some cool slide. Then, the beat kicks in. Next is a quick cut to the drummer who is supposedly his old wife, Honey Bun, with curlers in her hair and an old housecoat keeping the time. Well, it made me smile so much I thought I would investigate further.
Turns out old LB is quite a good country rocker and guitar player. Go West could have been a great single. It has a very catchy hook and chorus with a simple beat and groove. Cooper, a song about how many Coopers you can fit in is really cool. The highlight for me is LB’s Truth/ Civilian Vic. This was my introduction and it’s great to hear the studio version. It’s got lots of killer slide and great lyrics. I Walk Alone adds a touch of AC/DC crunch to proceedings, I like this tune just has much as LB’s Truth.
Sometimes the internet is a wonderful place.
8/10 from The Grooveman.
