In progress: The Chris Rolling Squad - Live Festival Rock à Block - Le Girouard, France 27 July 2019

Considering that France has never been the High Energy Rock 'N' Roll Mecca -  notable exceptions would be Little Bob Story, Ganafoul, Soggy, Wild Child, the Ashtones and Zoe... - it is only fair to give credits to a band sticking to the winning no bullshit recipe: Motörhead, Ramones, Detroit bands, Australian groups, hardcore punk, good old rootsy rock ’n’ roll, mean and dirty blues rock and there you go! Check their first album here on the Junkie Business Youtube channel, which specialises in High Energy stuff, and their second album here on the same channel. I first heard about them on ChrisGoesRock's blog here. Their production includes an EP and two albums available on the band's bandcamp. This homemade live boot comes from a video available here. I am still working on the tracklist and illustrations. The Chris Rolling Squad are definitely a band to follow and support.

Hell Crab City - Last bash with drummer Brad - Full Set

 A fabulous Australian band - yep, another one - that I unfortunately discovered much too late... The number of bands in which Leif Alan Creed has played is simply mind-blowing! Aberration, Hey! Charger, Hell Crab City, East Cost Low... and the list goes on... Leif Alan Creed's guitar work is simply phenomenal. This homemade bootleg (converted from the video) is my modest tribute to this great band and particularly to the memory of Scott Barker (R.I.P.). The YouTube video is available here. You can support Leif Alan Creed and buy merch on his bandcamp here.
