It seems lately that every band that deserved to grab the brass ring back in the day (and a few that clearly didn't) have been doing the reunion thing, so it was probably just a matter of time until the A-Bones joined their ranks. Truth to tell, for a band that broke up in the mid-'90s, the A-Bones have been remarkably lively in the new millennium, playing frequent reunion shows and cutting a new track for their career-defining anthology, Daddy Wants a Cold Beer, in 2004, so it should come as no great surprise they've chosen to make it official and record a new long-player. Not Now! is less aggressively sloppy than their earlier efforts, but their frantic, bash-it-out spirit is still clearly there even if the group's technique has tightened up; from the first notes of the Bo Diddley-in-the-jungle travelogue "Geraldine" to the last-call rave-up "Bing Bong (There's a Party Goin' On)," Not Now! makes it clear that this band's modus operandi of "rock now, worry later" hasn't changed a bit in the past 15 years. As usual, covers dominate this set, though most are obscure enough that you'll have to consult a serious record collector geek (or All Music Guide) to find out who previously recorded "Granny Tops 'Em at the Hop," "The Rooster," and "Bad Times," and one of the A-Bones' compatriots, Andy Shernoff, contributes a new number, the appropriately creepy "Shallow Grave" (based on the true story of Arizona serial killer Charles "Smitty" Schmid). The A-Bones also give another overlooked legend a moment in the spotlight, as Dave "Baby" Cortez contributes some snazzy organ to a new version of his classic "Cat Nip." Kim Fowley fans will get a laugh out of the cryptic homage "Jupiter Bulldog," the A-Bones get moody on "Outcast" and "Stolen Moments," and new guy Ira Kaplan (on leave from Yo La Tengo) adds new spice to the band's aural goulash on keyboards and guitar

I bought 4 for my daughter as they are so much cheaper here than anywhere else else. They are all gorgeous. Hazel is beautiful and a great figurine to have. I'm very pleased with the site and the purchase
Not the easiest record to source on vinyl but a real gem, received promptly, well packaged and in perfect condition.
Justin Adams is one of the unsung heroes among UK guitarists and cross-cultural ambassadors, committed to working with great musicians across West Africa, the Maghreb and southern Europe. On this record he joins the remarkable Mauro Durante of Canzoniere Grecanico Salentino to showcase a UK/Puglia blend with a sharp political edge. The title track Still Moving bears witness to the trauma of refugees seeking shelter that few here can imagine and too few even care to think about.
Full credit to Justin Adams, a wonderful musician with a true grasp of what solidarity means. His world view crosses musical borders and calls for a better future for all humanity.
