5.0 out of 5 stars Where have all the good times gone?, September 29, 2005

By 

PJ-Recovering Musician "Patrick" (Connecticut) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Live in Las Vegas (Audio CD)

Like a cattle prod to the base of the spine, you just can't stop moving your feet. On a sweltering summer evening in enchanting Las Vegas, at the now sadly defunct Calamity Janes Nashville Nevada, a motly crew of neer do well musicians took the stage for one final performance. Led by the late, great, Country Dick Montana and featuring the Reverend Mojo Nixon and the incomparable Dave Alvin, the Pleasure Barons laid waste to rock and roll convention. Call it cow punk, psycho-billy, or pure mayhem, this CD is a monument to what makes rock great. It will never happen again. If you weren't there: well now, in spirit you can be.
And, while you listen, you will know when the good times were.

5.0 out of 5 stars Supergroup, February 12, 2000

The greatest supergroup never to be seen again. Perfect mix of drunken pyschos doing fantastic music that would make the clowns at The Rock and Roll Hall of Lame quake in their booties.

If anything, buy the CD just to read the liner notes written by Country Dick Montana. They are pretty much a description of how the Pleasure Barons came to be and what they did in Las Vegas. Too funny for words!!!
