Some of the songs on The Setters also appear on Hard Road and Susan Across the Ocean. However, in most cases, these versions have a little harder impact - even though the Setters' drummer position was filled in the studio by Salas-Humara, who pounded on snare drum cases, juice boxes and metal shelving instead of a regular kit.
Escovedo's urgent vocals are higher in the mix, where they belong, on the Setters' version of ''She's Got,'' and the less-dense arrangement is more powerful than the original. The quieter, stripped-down version of Salas-Humara's ''Nothing's Gonna Last'' puts a clearer focus on his lyrics and allows him to sing with more warmth. And this lower-key, slightly woozy rendition of Hall's ''Let's Take Some Drugs and Drive Around'' is even more compelling than the gleeful, Mekons-like one on the Silos' record. The Setters also do a tortured, riveting cover of the Stooges "I Wanna Be Your Dog".

I had no idea Gurf Morlix played on The Setters' LP! I'll have to give it another listen~
Thank you RYP!
Thanks for the Eddie C. box. Your shares, as always, are incredible. Hate to burst the bubble, though, on Eddie's relationship to Hank Cochran. Though billed as the Cochran Brothers, they were in fact not related.
The Setters were bandmates as kids in Arkansas? No offense to whoever wrote that, but that would seem to be completely made up. Just saying. But, having said that (in my guise as editor and fact checker), thanks for this great kickoff to the new year.
Thank you very much LoFi Larry, for the great Eddie Cochran Box Set and for all the tunes you share.
The Oldies Guy.
Thanks for the clarification David, I guess I just always took the name at face value.
Also, I appreciate the shout-out but I don't think I shared the Setters album, it must've been Psyclist. And thanks for the album, btw.
