Album Notes

“She’s Like a British Car” - aren’t they all?

Hey fellas, been frustrated lately? Does your new cream-puff leave you high and dry at the most inopportune time? Are you ready to rock, are you ready to roll, but you can’t get her to turn over? Don’t give up - don’t give in - don’t throw in the shop towel. You don’t need no grease monkey, you don’t need no shrink. What you need man are The Thromboes.

“Who?”
“The Thromboes!”
“Who the hell are The Thromboes?”

The Thromboes are ‘Bongo LaHair’ on drums, Dave Powers on bass and Larry Levy on vocals and guitar.

“Yeh, and what are they gonna do for me?”

They’re going to drive you down the slippery slope of bad girls; ’round the highways and byways of broken down male fantasies; past the graveyards of “Junk” - to salvation man! They’ve been under the hood, in the trunk, under, over and all around. They know cars and they know women. And they can prove it! 12 rockin’ cylinders, 12 piston pumpin’ songs; “She’s Like a British Car” will sit side by side in your glove box next to your owners manual - guaranteed Steed!

These are songs to get that old gal started again. Rhythms to inebriate. Melodies to lubricate. The Thromboes debut CD is here and you will never be the same. So roll down your windows, take down her top, crank her up and let the warmth and grit of beautiful analog restore your faith in what came before and what will come again.
