News from the Los Straitjackets camp. Scroll down to the bottom for new
album info!
I understand the new CD will come with 3-D glasses and several 3-D covers to
choose from.

Just wanted to give a shout out about this CD. I listened to it a few times on
my recent East Coast
trip and I really dig it. Eddy Clearwater is what you would call an "elder
statesman" and this album
is a very sweet and authentic rock'n'blues record, with Eddy, Eddie and Danny
trading off guitar
licks. I think it shows a whole different side to the Strait's abilities, mostly
laying back into
the groove rather than pushing it like on there own CDs. I hope that hardcore
Straitjacket fans
won't pass this by because it is a vocal album. I understand that they have
already and will be
backing up Clearwater on a few festival type shows through the end of the year.

They'll be hitting Atlanta on Halloween (my birthday;
hopefully I can con somebody into driving me so I can
get piss drunk), so I'll definitely be there,
especially if they're still touring with the Pontani
Sisters. :)
I saw them last December when they did their whole
Christmas schtick and it was one of the best shows
I've ever seen.
