the album cover for Routers - A-Ooga!!! Stamp & Shake With The Routers [Import]

Limited edition pressing. As the title implies, the Routers were never about high minded cerebral matters. The motive was basic and straight forward: use any gimmick that might work to sell as many records to the maximum number of teenagers as humanly possible. Unashamed commercialism meant the writers would jump on any passing bandwagon and come up with a catchy tune. Using the same ploy that had been successful with the Marketts the sleeves and touring bands featured young white men, but the music you hear on this CD was mostly recorded by middle aged Black virtuoso session men. When you listen closely you can revel in the drive and power of Earl Palmer's drums, the guttural, hoarse throated sax of Steve Douglas, and the ever nimble and agile twanging of Tommy Tedesco. Ace Deluxe.
