'56 brings back to life one of the purest forms of American Roots music and lays it down with style. From blues-tinged, hip-shakin' rockers like "Johnny B. Goode" and "Shake, Rattle & Roll" to the sultry, starlight ballads of "Fever" or "Love Me", Bret's silky-smooth, powerful vocals make every female swoon and the fellas want to run out and race with their buddies for pinks! The ethereal twang of Tom's Falcon Gretsch on tunes like "Sleepwalk" and "Honey Don't" are reminiscent of Carl Perkins/Brian Setzer/Duane Eddy while Chris' wing-tipped acrobatics -- literally, standing and riding -- on the stand-up bass have to be seen to be believed! Accentuating every riff and laying down the beat, Randy is a master of percussion nuance on the drums -- but, wait 'til you see both Randy & Chris simultaneously play the bass on "Mystery Train" -- unbelievable!
