Make A Circuit With Me - The Polecats, 1982
A sweet romance is not for me [Chorus] Just plug in and go-go-go I'm an AC/DC man A sweet romance is not for me I'm an AC/DC man --- Originally founded as "Cult Heros" in 1977, the name sounded too punk for the Rockabilly venues they wanted to play in. They settled on "The Polecats" (a polecat is a species of weasel, found primarily in Europe). Over the years, the band released 11 albums with different 10 labels, starting with Nervous Records in 1979. Rockabilly is a style of music that derives its name from Rock 'n Rock and Hillbilly (early country music). There are also strong influences from Swing, Boogie Woogie and Blues. Rockabilly music has its roots in such stalwart artists as: Bill Haley & His Comets, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, Buddy Holly, Jerry Lee Lewis and Elvis Presley. A later resurgence included Dave Edmunds & Nick Lowe, and, of course, the Stray Cats. Rockabilly music wouldn't be diddly-squat, however, without the stand-up, or Double Bass . Yeehaw. |
