The Girl Can't Help It (LP, 180g, limited)

Sandy & The Wild Wombats

Vinyl-LP, 180gram, 13 tracks. Limited edition

Unique 12inch vinyl LP, limited to 1,000 copies! Reissue of the original JAZZTANK CD from 2015, on vinyl for the first time! Includes their legendary cover songs Wild One and Got A Lot O' Livin' To Do! Includes a previously unissued track from the same sessions! Alternative cover jacket based on the original CD cover! Painstakingly remastered for highest fidelity.  Pressed on 180 gram high quality vinyl!  The new female Rockabilly sensation from Germany! Truly the discovery of the year! The rough tough voice of Sandy must be named in the same breath with Wanda Jackson and Imelda May! The band provides evidence in picking great cover versions for this album, tracks like Elvis' Got A Lot O' Livin' To Do, a vocal version of Santo & Johnny's Sleep Walk, The Sweet's 1970s smash hit Ballroom Blitz, or even the title song – covering Little Richard's not easy at all! With her fantastic voice, Sandy does it the easy way! Highly recommended debut album! Definitely a must have!
Anyone listening to Sandy & The Wild Wombats for the first time will wonder how they have chosen their songs for this album. Fifties' classics – some of them almost forgotten – are revived here in new glory. Sandy's rough voice alone clears the old songs from their dust and makes them up-to date again. And what power they get in the Wild Wombats' new rendition! It's the rough edges – the hard tones – that make Sandy & The Wild Wombats so appealing. Recorded and produced privately at the begin- ning of 2015, it was just meant to be a simple but usable demo recording. But with the power and the enthusiasm – and of course Sandy's hot and expressive voice combined with tough backings of her band's musical talents – all of a sudden they had a complete album in their pocket! With no flat spots, and humorous, not too serious, Sandy & The Wild Wombats are on their way to stardom – with this album and with their wild and frantic live shows!
For the first time, a modern rock 'n' roll and rockabilly band has the courage to cover the classic Elvis movie song Got A Lot O' Livin' To Do, bringing it back to life again. Listen to Sandy singing Riot In Cell Block #9 rendered in the best Wanda Jackson style and Have Love Will Travel takes also part in a series of great interpretations, although here the number is rather inspired by the Sonics' 1960s version than the striking Doo-Wop original by Richard Berry & The Pharaohs. Most of the songs on this album were prompted by special requests ('Hello! I'm special! Play me!') and followed the motto: 'Why not try that one?' The idea was simply, 'Make it rough & dirty! Just sing it! Just play it.' And you can feel it! So turn off your brain computer and get the feeling!
