It goes without saying that no one in Austin, Texas' LeRoi Brothers is named LeRoi. Debuting on the unpretentious Check This Action as a trio (singer/guitarists Steve Doerr and Don Leady and drummer Mike Buck) plus a guest bassist, the LeRois set to rocking without ado, reeling off energetically unreconstructed rock'n'roll / R&B covers (plus a few originals that don't slow down the party one bit) in an unmistakable Southwestern accent. Evan Johns replaced guitarist Don Leady (who went on to form the Tail Gators), Lucky Lucky Me is a full menu of high-energy tunes played for keeps. "Fight Fire With Fire," the zydeco-tinged "The Back Door" and a quick history lesson, "Elvis in the Army," are among the highlights. - Trouser Press

Thanks for the Evan Johns & Danny Gatton. What a wild, raw ride. Great stuff.
Thanks. Danny Gatton music has interested me after I found out he was a guitar teacher of Joe Bonamassa. Thia is something new.
