While the dawn of #Psychobilly in Europe in the early 1980''s was dominated by British bands like #TheMeteors and #GuanaBatz or #Batmobile from the Netherlands, one of the few German bands taking over the scene were the #Waltons from Berlin.

This album by
#TheRicochets was one of the earliest bands that crossed the #Psychobilly/#Rockabilly border (well, except the meteors maybe).
The bass player later joined the #GuanaBatz. The drummer played a few years for the meteors. The lead vocals were legend.
In the 80's and 90's, the #GuanaBatz were a top #Psychobilly/Neo-#Rockabilly act in Europe.
This #StrayCats cover was one of their usual closing tracks at their gigs, but we loved it. We did not go home before they played it.
