Saturday Matinee – Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band, Leo P & Jeff Beck w/ Imelda May

I get the grins whenever I hear The Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band. Don’t let the silly stuff distract you; The Reverend has some killer chops.

Leo Pellegrino (of Too Many Zooz & Lucky Chops) really blows it in 2017 and breaks into Charles Mingus’ Moanin’ at about  3:14.

In 2019 Pellegrino sued  Epic Games for allegedly using his likeness when designing the “Phone it in” dance emote. “Because of his externally rotatable feet, he eventually developed his own unique dancing style and his signature and original movements – viz., the Signature Move,” reads the filing. 

Jeff Beck & Imelda May – great take on The Shangri-Las‘ 1964 breakout hit Remember (Walking In The Sand).

I hear there’s a football game this weekend, so burn your masks, fix up a batch of chili and we’ll see you tomorrow.

 

Saturday Matinee – Fritz the Dog, Rockabilly Speed Drawing, Billy Woodward & The Senders, The Howlin’ Brothers, Imelda May with Darrel Higham

Fritz The Dog finally gets it.

This vid is entitled “Rockabilly Speed Drawing.” It’s cool and fast and rockabilly. Not sure what the connection is besides the sound track, but it’s still cool and fast and rockabilly.

Billy Woodward & The Senders. Awesome retro sound.

The Howlin’ Brothers crank out some home-grown basics.

Imelda May is killer with “The Right Amount of Wrong.”

Have a great weekend, folks, and be back here tomorrow.

 

Saturday Matinee – Imelda May, Jimmy & The Rackets; Ron Levy & Ronnie Earl; J. Geils, Duke Robillard & Gerry Beaudoin

Imelda May is way cool. That’s her version of  Buddy Holly’s “Looking For Love” which was also covered by The Stray Cats. It was never covered by Andy Tielman as far as I know, but here on The Saturday Matinee, one vid and three links just don’t make the nut.

Yep. That’s Jimmy & The Rackets as if I had to tell you, but now I’m torn between two more vids to post. I’ll resolve the dilemma by posting them both, back-to-back, because each of them made me smile for different reasons. Have a great weekend folks, and we’ll see you back here tomorrow.

Saturday Matinee – The Osmonds, Imelda May, The Black Keys

The Osmonds‘ “Crazy Horses.” I dare you to watch the whole thing. I couldn’t handle it. Now for some eye & ear bleach:

Imelda May‘s take on Johnny Burnette‘s take on Tiny Bradshaw‘s “Train Kept A-Rollin.”
[Nice find by Iowahawk]

The Black Keys, live at Abbey Road 2009. That should make up for the first vid, and with that, I’m out for now. Happy Passover & Easter to all.
