Thorogood, George & The Destroyers - Born To Be Bad
RARE/2HAND VINYL LP ON EMI 1988
EMI E1-46973 made in USA.
Vinyl VG+. Cover VG+.
Vintage Thorogood, which is to say a defiantly unsubtle, unabashedly party-hearty serving of Chicago blues (a convincing version of Howlin' Wolf' "Highway 49"), rockabilly (a smart revamp of Chuck Berry's "You Can't Catch Me"), '60s R&B (Roy Head's horn-driven "Treat Her Right"), country (Hank Snow's often covered "I'm Movin' On"), and self-mythologizing (the title tune, which is rather more overtly ironic than his earlier "Bad to the Bone"). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Thorogood
