If you dig rockabilly music (which one can assumes as you read this lines) and especially 50's sounding rockabilly the name of Dave Moore may be familiar to you. He's the guy behind the excellent Wild Hare records label and has played on countless recordings (the liner notes say "43 professionnal releases with 29 different artists on 280 tracks!").
This is, to my knowledge, his first real solo effort, including 12 self-penned songs on which he's backed by Ryan Cain, Wendy Lebeau and Buck Stevens among others.
Some of this tunes have previously been sung by members of the Wild Hare roster like the Pat Cupp influenced "Blue So Blue" by Ron Berry, "Uptown" by Amber Lee and "You Better Leave" (appearing here in a very demo sounding version) by Buck Stevens.
Musically this is what you can expect - and love - from Wild Hare: a mix of vintage and raw sounding rockabilly with its feet solidly anchored in the hillbilly tradition, going from "Love Eternally" a country weeper in a Hank Williams vein to the frantic rockabilly of "I Do What I Want When I Want" all recording on vintage equopment that gives to Wild Hare its signature sound.
A must have.
