Wilder, Webb -& The Beatnecks-
Powerful Stuff!
We are pleased and excited to announce the upcoming release of Powerful Stuff! from one of the nation's all time great roots rock bands, Webb Wilder & The Beatnecks. Webb Wilder, a recent inductee into the Mississippi Music Hall Of Fame, has led this iconic, tightly knit, guitar driven group through its heyday in the 80s and 90s to the present. Consisting of recently discovered and totally unreleased material, Powerful Stff! combines heretofore unheard original tumes by songwriter/producer R.S. Field plus distinctive cover renditiond on songs by Sam & Dave, Doug Kershaw, Tina Turner and Little Richard. The title track is actually the original version of a song that alter hit big for the Fabulous Thunderbirds. With strong backing from the first incarnation of the Beatnecks, featuring Wilder, guitar and vocals, the blazing Donny Roberts, guitar, Denny "Cletus" Blakely, bass, and Jimmy Lester, drums, Powerful Stuff! is proof to why this legendary group has remained a popular attraction around the world for over 30 years. The new album mixes studio tracks with blistering live performances that echo their classic debut It Came From Nashville.
