  • I think "Quite A Beat" is equally as good if not even better that its top-side coupling "Let There Be Drums". It really should have been classed a double "A" Side. Both sides are as fine a disc and piece of rock n' roll solo drumming as came out of the twang genre.

    To LoboGirl. I think you'll find the Rocket sound you are looking for is "Rocket Man" not by Sandy Nelson but The Spotnicks from the same era. Check it out. Its also superb. Yours In Twang ....Chris.
