Strip-o-rama, Vol. 3
Perhaps the densest (and most scandalous) compilation yet by the ever daring El Vidocq. Once again, our indefatigable connoisseur raises the curtain on an arousing series of smooth tunes, with their languid rhythms, well-rounded melodies and cheeky grooves. An exciting mix of styles struts its stuff in various states of undress: Rockabilly (Rusty & Doug Kershaw, Clyde Stacy), Pop (Betty Reilly, Ella Johnson), Crooner (Louis Jordan), Rock (Chuck Miller), Swing Jazz (Joanie Sommers), Burlesque (The Ramcocks), R'n'B (Gino Parks)... An eminently naughty selection of musical gems to peel off one by one.
