LET'S WELCOME AGAIN,

Jody Reynolds has been here before, but it's been a while and seeing as how some of the old links are dead, I figured you could use another chance to familiarize yourself with the criminally overlooked singer. Reynolds was versatile, capable of almost Rick Nelson-like vocal stuff and some Duane Eddy type instrumentals (with guitar by his Storms band mate and future Wrecking Crew stalwart Al Casey). For many, though, Reynold's forte was the smoky proto-Cramps semi-creepy sounding stuff, and nowhere is that more evident than "Fire of Love," famously covered by the Gun Club (who put it on their second LP, after borrowing the title for their first LP) Ho, hum, you say, hot shot? Been there, done that? Despite your flippant know-it-all attitude, there's something down there for you too. A mix I practically tripped over, with Jody Reynolds kicking off a pretty good line up of others you probably have multiple copies of. Quit alphabetizing for a minute. Rock out.
