Album Review
Sleepy LaBeef is a bawdy, exuberant performer whose musical skills are slightly above average, but whose heart and energy are kingsize. He rips through Western swing, rockabilly, R&B, and rock on this 14-track set, doing originals and vintage pieces with equal ferocity. LaBeef doesn't coast through any song; he sings "Standing In The Need Of Prayer" and "Strange Things Happening" with the same aggressiveness as "Sittin' On Top Of The World" and "Stagger Lee." His slashing guitar riffs and authoritative vocals setting the pace, Sleepy LaBeef makes music for those who feel the spirit, no matter what the song.
Customer Reviews
The human jukebox, a Rockabilly legend.
Growing up in New York, Rockabilly is exotic music. Even Carl Perkins, who went mainstream, is exotic stuff. Then a guy like Sleepy comes to town and encapsulates everything good about Rockabilly. Suddenly it makes sense. And he certainly makes sense. It's nice to see he's become an elder statesman of his music. Nobody loves playing it more than he does, and nobody plays it better.
