MP3 Hurtin' Buckaroos - Anthology
12 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Ska, COUNTRY: Country Rock
Details:
In 1993, producer Joe Ferry started an experimental rock group that he
called The Hurtin'' Buckaroos. The band recorded its now legendary debut
cassette entitled "3 Stories" that first year and played a number of
shows to appreciative and somewhat stunned audiences. In 1995,
Shanachie A&R Director Charlie Dahan (now Ferry''s business partner)
invited the band to record tracks for an album he was compiling,
"Skandalous: I Gotcha Covered Vol 2". The only catch was that the group
had to record Ska, not avant garde rock. Since Joe Ferry was also the
producer of the pivotal ska pioneers, The Skatalites, this was not a
problem. The resulting tracks, including "Bonanza", are wonderful
examples of Ferry''s merging of traditional and two-tone ska with rock,
pedal steel guitars, Texas Swing and New Orleans rhythms. Hurtin''
Buckaroos went on to record numerous tracks for Shanachie, Blind
Records, and other labels. But The Hurtin'' Buckaroos never released a
full length album. Until now... "Anthology" features some familiar
tracks and some previously unreleased tracks. The band''s personnel
changed continually over the years but among the standout musicians on
the CD are Ara Babajian (Agent 99, The Slackers), Frank London (The
Klezmatics), Robert Wagner (The New Orleans Klezmer Allstars), Donnie
Lupie (Cycle Sluts From Hell) and Lauren Stauber, whose haunting vocals
are featured on most of the tracks. "Anthology" is a comprehensive
collection of Hurtin'' Buckaroos tracks from 1993 to 2000 and is their
long-awaited full length debut CD!
