NORTON 301 ROKY ERICKSON AND THE ALIENS – DON’T KNOCK THE ROK!
A Teenager In Love/Angel Baby/ You Drive Me Crazy/Stand By Me/Heart-strings/Untitled/What To Do/You’re The One/Bashful Bob/One Last Kiss/Take Good Care Of My Baby/Things That Go Bump In The Night/Wake Up To Rock And Roll/Can’t Be Brought Down/Money Honey/You’re The One/Love Is Strange/ True Love Ways/You’re The One/Our First Kiss/Heartbreak Hotel/Bumble Bee Zombie/Hushabye Twenty three unissued blasts cut at the 1978 warm up sessions for Roky and the Aliens’ EVIL ONE LP! Roky filters his patented howl through a slew of covers ranging from Dion and the Belmonts and Bobby Vee to Elvis and Buddy Holly, not to mention a Bye Bye Birdie show tune! Dig some unheard Roky originals, too! It’s like the Elevators meet King Uszneiwicz at a Martian pajama party! Double LP $13/CD $12

Last night (2/5/04) Dave the Spaz played "Your The One" a Buddy Holly cover. (I think/thought/thunk) he said it was a Norton 45 with guest sideman Waylon Jennings from a live show in Texas from the 70's. What I found at the Norton site is this new release cd/lp "Dont Knock the Rok!". clarification pending
