Synopsis

Product Description
In Montreal, Canada, Black Snake and Mark Sultan played in the underground punk-garage band The Spaceshits. Following that band's demise, Sultan banged drums for Canadian garage rock legends Les Sexareenos. Black Snake transformed into King Khan and relocated to Hamburg, Germany to become the Maharaja of '60s super-soul with his band The Shrines. After the Sexareenos split, Sultan traveled the world with his guitar, serenading Brazilians, Laotians, Americans, and the French with his one-man band BBQ. One day a light bulb went off in their heads and they decided to join forces. The King Khan & BBQ Show was born. They released their debut album, recorded by DM Bob in Hamburg, on Goner Records in 2005. The record was deleted soon thereafter.

In The Red presents this long-overdue re-release of this classic in a newly expanded package. There are two bonus tracks not originally available on the Goner release and brand new artwork. This is a must for any fan of real rock'n'roll music. Take off your pants and dance.
 

CD Reviews

Garage Rock for Revivalists
A. Woodley | 04/17/2009
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This is garage rock and true to it. It's a good album. I like garage rock though. That being said, I have had numerous friends who tell me that this album sounds dated. I can see that. I do think there are better garage rock bands who do not sound dated like The Dirtbombs. If your new to garage rock then check them out first. If you're dig garage rock and know what you're getting yourself into, than by all means check out this album. This really is a pretty strong outing from a pretty cool group."
