Together with #Restless, the #BlueCats are THE British Neo-#Rockabilly legends since the very early 1980's.

I still love the Blue Cats first two albums, "Fight Back" (1982) and "The Tunnel" (1992).

And they are still active. These days together with #SteveWhitehouse (formerly known as the world's fastest double bass player with #TheSharks and #Frenzy).

They played last week at the "#Bedlam #Psychobilly Breakout" in Northampton.

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

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

Reminds me of #Frenzy and #TheSharks.

But I think you know
I really think you know
I think you know the truth
Jeane"
