Wales rockabilly legend Cavan Grogan suddenly passed away last Saturday, February 15. He was 70. He was the vocalist and frontman of Crazy Cavan & The Rhythm Rockers since 1970.
We started buying their records in the late 70s, at a time when rockabilly music was really underground stuff. No roots music excuses, no stand-up basses, no glamourous imagery, no damn (visible) tattoos. Just incorruptible, irrepressible love for early rock and roll music, that's all.
Thanks, Cavan. You really inspired us.
I can't help but posting a few of their anthems from the mid-to-late 70s. Please play them real loud.
