Rebel Rousers

Product Information

And in case anyone’s wondering, my opening clip featured Cliff and the boys with a live version of I Take What I Want. My closer just has to be another Sam & Dave number.

The innovative soul musicians, who are known for hits such as ‘Got To Get You Into My Life’ and ‘One Way Love’, were the first London band to be signed by Beatles manager Brian Epstein and first British band to be signed to the Motown label.

Cliff was easily the most consistent and, arguably the best, R&B cum Soul Shouter produced by these islands. I’d even go further and state that Cliff was better than any white singer anywhere operating in the R&B field in the mid sixties. Single with the original coming from Marvin Gaye plus subsequent cover from the Paul Butterfield Band.This was one of their last live performances as the band had decided to stop touring and to turn their attention to recording in the studio, a decision which was to lead to the release of Sergeant Pepper the following year.

I’m also rather inclined towards the Dean Sterling/Teen-beats Lost Love. Good usage of the Doo Wop Progression, endearing semi-unplugged arrangement and one of those teen pop records which belied the rule of most/all teen pop being rubbish. And Dean doesn’t really play up the Holly thing.

The Beatles Recording Sessions. New York City: Harmony Books. ISBN 0-517-57066-1. From the first EP. There were three EPs released and none of the songs on them appeared on any single or LP from Cliff and the boys. And, yes, this was the great Larry Williams number and Cliff’s version was recorded before the take from the Stones (on Out Of Our Heads). I love both the original and the Stones more metallic effort but Cliff took the song closer to up tempo soul which is where I felt the original was intended to be targeted. Williams, of course, did move into the soul arena both with, and without, Johnny “Guitar” Watson.In 1988, English guitarist Mark Lundquist reformed The Rebel Rousers. He functioned as both band leader and manager until 1996. More recently, Lundquist has toured alongside Mike d’Abo, Chris Farlowe, Zoot Money, Maggie Bell, Screaming Lord Sutch, The Manfreds, Steve Ellis and New Amen Corner. […]
