• Canadian Blues Rock band "Crowbar" are just too cool by far. They recorded their first album with "King Biscuit Boy" in 1970 and followed up with this their own debut soon after."Bad Manors" is a fine album indeed; there are great songs with a sense of fun; fantastic harmonies and overall a cool ad-lib type upbeat tempo. The band really congeal and certainly know their place and the banter is a joy to listen to. I hadn't heard of this mega-cool Canuck band until I got a request in again from Da Fingermeister, who also requested the cool "Whisky Hollow", whom I got special permission to post recently and not "Whiskey Howl" another cool Canadian band. So well I posted both. Grab this here folks. They seem to be able to play every instrument going, including spoons. Did she say spoons? I ain't listening to people playing spoons man. You will not be disappointed folks. And thanks for the tip Da Fingermeister. You have a wicked sense of fun..
