Beat Farmers- Heading North 53n 8e: Live In Bremen (Uk) (CD)
Live archive release from the roots rockers. Their rather peculiar mix of rock'n'roll, rockabilly, Americana, blues, folk- and country elements the Beat Farmers called cowpunk. Just like The Blasters, the Beat Farmers came from the sun state California, more precisely: from San Diego. Dick Montana and Jerry Raney had founded the band there in 1983; guitarist Bernard "Buddy Blue" Seigal and bassist Rolle Love, both originating from the rockabilly band The Rockin' Roulettes, completed the quartet. One year later the first long player was released on Rhino Records. In 1987 came the third album The Pursuit Of Happiness. Meanwhile Bernard "Buddy Blue" left the band, and Joey Harris joined in (former member of Country Dick Montana & The Snuggle Bunnies). Now the Beat Farmers were completely in the right lane. The album was more rock-heavy and punchy than it's predecessor Van Go. In early summer 1987 the Beat Farmers went on tour also in Europe. The concert at hand was recorded at the Bremen club Modernes on May 29th. Live, the band was loud, rock-heavy, dirty, snotty full of energy and in the mood to play. They were playing with punk and rockabilly attitudes but still playing homage to country music.
