Hares, The
Smoking In Bed
The debut album from The Hares has the immediate impact of being hit by a diesel-powered locomotive driven by Jerry Lee Lewis at his most manic. The San Antonio seven-piece hijack rocknroll, drive to New Orleans, marry it in a drive-thru chapel and then kick it to the curb because it looked at another man funny. Twelve tracks of foot-stompin, hoot-n-hollerin' rocknroll propelled by an insanely tight and powerful horn section and steeped in hoodoo, voodoo and bootleg liquor. This is a record that shakes you by the collar and doesnt let go until your clothes have fallen off and you're happy about it. If Screamin Jay Hawkins had a punk band today it would be The Hares. The white vinyl pressing contains a full lyric sheet.
