New single of the #TestPilots. Wonderfully anachronistic #Psychobilly.

Well, maybe except the (nevertheless brilliant) guitar solo ;-)

Reminds me of #Frenzy and #TheSharks.

My buddy told me, the #TestPilots album was produced by the UK #Sharks guitarist.

The #Telecaster guy plays extremely fiddly, and obviously loves the #BlueCats style.

The vocalist/singer is a jazz artist, AFAIK.

RIP. :-(

"Chuck Yeager, the most famous test pilot of his generation who was the first to break the sound barrier, and, thanks to Tom Wolfe, came to personify the death-defying aviator who possessed the elusive yet unmistakable “right stuff,” died on Monday at a hospital in Los Angeles. He was 97."
