“Rock and roll keeps you in a constant state of juvenile delinquency.” Eddie Spaghetti – 2000
When you next feel the compulsion to let your juvenile delinquent out for the day we have the perfect soundtrack. Dave Woodcock & The Dead Comedians are an award-winning rock n roll act from Sheffield, UK and ‘Medicine’ is their third album. It’s time to dose up. There is always a place for old school rock & roll, and ‘Medicine’ delivers. The pace is fairly relentless hurtling from one high-octane track to the next. There are definite nods to rock & roll history from Johnny Cash, Elvis Costello – Pump It Up (At The Pharmacy) to The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, but this only adds to the charm and provides an immediate familiarity that makes listening all the more pleasurable. Dave Woodcock & The Dead Comedians are our Band of The Week, take the time to listen to ‘Medicine’ before working your way through their back catalogue.
