Evan Johns & The H-Bombs "Rockit Fuel Only" 1991

Rockit Fuel Only!, while allowing for the broad stylistic whims of its creator (like a surprising compassionate piano ballad, "Prove It to Each Other"), also rocks harder than anything since Rollin' Through the Night. "Juvenile Delinquent," "Boogie Disease" and "Little Scene Setter" are among the rip-it-up corkers that keep Evan Johns among rock'n'roll's guitar elite.
I know there's a lot of folks on Twilightzone who dig Evan Johns' records. Hell, I'm one of them. This one is from 1991 and came out on RYKO. Another infectious high energy Evan Johns creation. Evan's howlin' vocals? Check. Rockin' tunes? Check. Great songwriting? Check. Is it as good as Rollin' Through The Night? Probably not. What makes this one for me are the slower numbers, especially "Prove It To Each Other". The singing on this number is incredible! This is the kind of song Bob Dylan should be writing now. Speaking of which, does Bob Dylan's voice today sounding like Evan Johns in the 80's? There's also plenty of guitar boogie and garage hillbilly on this. Just ignore the echo on the drums. Enjoy!
