Cockadoodledon't

Product Description
The 'Shakers whip up a witches brew of hillbilly hellfire and blues brimstone. The locomotive rhythms of traditional bluegrass, the intensity of Mississippi roadhouse blues, and the full on sonic assault of Slayer create a fertile and jumpy hybrid that will leave you a helpless, sweaty mess. "CockADoodleDon't" strikes you with force of Jerry Lee Lewis, Iggy Pop, and Elmer Gantry showing up for a bar fight. The Shakers will have you dancing giddily into the fires.

Best Intro to the Shakers.......2007-02-19

If you have been told about the Legendary Shack Shakers, and are wondering which album to start with, this would be it.
th'Legendary Shack Shakers are a southern gothic band out of Paducah, KY, whose lead singer/harpist is completely fascinating in his explorative style, and search for American roots music.
Some of the strongest tracks on the album are "Pinetree Boogie", which starts off the album with a high energy burst. Following is "CB Song", smooth cruising to feel dangerous, primitve and sexy. "Hunkerdown" seems to be an invitation to the fire, sit on your haunches and let the night weave into darkened tales. "Blood on the Bluegrass" is, like most LSS songs, contains the evocative imagery of denied spirits, hungering hearts and wild vengance.
"Shake Your Hips", a cover of a Slim Harpo tune, is a fantastic throw in that almost keeps up with the original's power.
"Bullfrog Blues", "Devil's Night Auction", "Hoptown Jailbreak" are also three fairly good tunes, though not as much as the five previously mentioned.
"Clodhopper" is a strong country/folk tune, and for those anticipating the southern gothic or psychobilly leanings will be thrown off by this purer throwback. "Wild Wild Lover" was simply an average song, and overall not to judge the album by.
A fantastic album, and the first "new" band I've fallen in love with for over a decade, their music is just that exciting and brimming with originality and energy. Get in to them today!

Shakes My Shack.......2004-08-04

Ever wonder what it might be like to hear Elvis roaring over a mosh-pit on the moon? Well, you've clicked on the right link! If the epic duststorms of the Grapes of Wrath-era American plains ever had a soundtrack, this would be it. Featuring a tornado on harmonica and a locomotive on electric guitar, this album is a frenzied storm of sound from start to finish. Reinventing Slim Harpo with a sizzling take on "Shake Your Hips," these guys don't just shake the shack down; they char the ground it stood on. Not since Muddy Waters has anyone played the harmonica so rudely; the album plays like an audible time warp -- some lost great LP from the famed "Chess" label of Muddy, Howlin' Wolf, Little Walter, Slim and Bo, perhaps. Equally as astonishing as this album's energy is the musical range it navigates. Addictive boogie-woogie blues like "Hunkerdown" and especially "CB Song" launch effortlessly into the ragtime hysterics of "Help Me From my Brain." Appealing to people from every destination along the spectrum of musical tastes, The Shackshakers serve up something for everyone. If their Tom Waits-ish clang doesn't drag you into the maelstrom of their glory, then maybe the banjo/fiddle freakouts will do the trick. This is the kind of stuff that can transform a Friday night game of bingo into a good old-fashioned rave.

Awesome stuff.......2004-07-11

I discovered this bunch of Yay-hoos when I was trying to find out who recorded the awesome, slimey, bluesy number I heard on a certain Geico insurance commercial. It was these guys, and the song is called "CB Song". Tone deaf friends would tap their toes to it - it was the hoochie coo anthem of the dark side of human existence. The Shack Shakers populate a twisted landscape of night creatures, where hillbillies run from lynch mobs, the Devil holds auctions on Saturday night, and cockfighting is the national sport. Awesome, bent stuff that is sure to get under your skin like a tattoo and ruin you for the vapid, uninspired garbage they play on the radio these days. These guys are ORIGINAL, a term you don't often apply to popular music. Do yourself a big favor and grab this album. Words don't do any justice - just play the cuts you can listen to here and see if you don't agree this is a cut above the regular bump and grind.

The Legendary Shack Shakers let loose with some of the most energetic rockabilly/blues/bluegrass you'll ever hear. Add a dash of punk rock to that mix too. JD Wilkes can really blow the harp too. Picture the Reverend Horton Heat meets Slim Harpo and a bit of Bill Monroe and MC5. Check out their version of Slim Harpo's "Shake Your Hips". It's got the spirit of the original, yet is done way over the top (in a good way). Hear they put on a great show too, so if you get a chance go see 'em.
