crushed butler

...by the time these tracks were laid down in '69/'70, jesse hector had been rocking out in various guises for at least a decade and it kind of shows with these angry hippy/bo diddley/anarcho-teddy boy thrashers...heavy rocking street thuds of pounding insane riffs that push and shove with relentless energy and fervent passion...cats maybe wanting a reference point could stir the following into the noggin; mott/deviants/stray/fairies/stackwaddy' and see what comes up because thats where these cats stand, on the cusp of the seventies with other hooligan talents all ready to take the hard rock blues sounds into another stratosphere...this is the sound of the outlaw cats who live outside the cozy 'record industry village', scaring the label bosses with their high energy vibrations, their positive belief in the power of' rocknroll, the no compromise stand they put up, no evil suit was going to tell them what to do, none of this behaviour endeared them to the capitalist machine that knew it couldn't stand an onslaught of street level honest vibes...these demos eventually saw the light of day in '91 when they appeared in a limited edition gatefold wax, a very nice little tribute to one of lifes great real cats, jesse hector...
