5.0 out of 5 stars
Move over, Pollard. . . ., April 5, 2008
This review is from: Environ Maiden (Audio CD)
Put your GBV records away kids. As good as Pollard is, Dean Wells, aka The Capstan Shafts, has the goods--in spades. If you've never, then Environ Maiden is a great introduction. And then scout out the rest of his back catalog (very extensive, and nary a letdown in the bunch). And the Capstan Shafts are just starting to tour (officially debuted at CMJ in NYC in October 07), so if you get the chance, as good as the CDs are (and they're amazing), catch 'em live. You won't regret it--you won't forget it. That's a guarantee.
This is rock as it hasn't been in so long. And it's here for the listening. Grab it, kids, and don't let go. Ask anyone who's heard Capstan Shafts and you'll get the same response: Wow! Perfectly crafted rockin' pop nuggets that deserve to be around for a long, long time. If there's any balance in the universe, our grandkids will be bobbing their heads to vintage Capstan Shafts tunes a long time from now. Get in on the action!
