Clarky Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) We have a new single coming on Wednesday 2nd November to mark 'Day of the Dead', called 'Who do you love?' Its much more bum-shaking and funky than our previous material and as soon as its available I will post a link here. For now, as a taster, here is the artwork [attachment=92272:385487_10150354128923106_236361988105_8581661_1317421933_n.jpg] Edited November 2, 2011 by Clarky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted November 2, 2011 Author Share Posted November 2, 2011 Its out! If you click on the link to our website here there is a free player so you can take a listen. Its more funky than our usual stuff and has a really earth-shattering double bass sound, IMHO [url="http://rattlinbone.com/2011/who-do-you-love-2/"]http://rattlinbone.com/2011/who-do-you-love-2/[/url] Background: "Who Do You Love?" was originally written and recorded in 1956 by Bo Diddley. Rolling Stone magazine ranked the song as #132 on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time on December 9, 2004. The song was given a Grammy Hall of Fame Award in 2010.

Clarky Posted November 2, 2011 Author Share Posted November 2, 2011 Thanks Keith! It does need good speakers to really 'feel' the bass and the brass section Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted November 4, 2011 Author Share Posted November 4, 2011 Anyone else care to take a listen and pass judgment, good or bad? We're proud of this one and just learned it's going to be played on Spanish national radio (their Radio 3) by DJ El Sotano - just wish UK national radio would give it a play too!

Norm Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Ssschweet Dbass sound. Good work fella! Coincidentally just been listening to the original of that track, great opening lines. Cheers, Norm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Downloaded! Really great track, mate - sounds a bit like Pigbag featuring Tom Waits... Would have had the bass much louder in the mix, though - but I always say that! Big fan of the original and this is a fantastic treatment, very well done.

Clarky Posted November 24, 2011 Author Share Posted November 24, 2011 Thank you chaps, much appreciated. Sorry if I didn't reply earlier. Have tried with no success to get this on national radio so far (Robert Elms etc) but we made it on to Spanish Radio 3! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
51m0n Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Thats superb, love the bv's and the stops, wnd the bass sound, and the lead vox (someone likes Tom Waits don't they!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted November 24, 2011 Author Share Posted November 24, 2011 Thx 51m0n! RB has been described as sounding "like Tom Waits has gone to hell and started a voodoo band" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linus27 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Don't know the original at all but I liked this song Clarky and the recording sounds ace. Tight, punchy and everything sounding ace. Top job fella If I am honest though, not so keen on the artwork because it looks too much like a heavy metal band and not what the actual band sounds like. I know you are going for that Zombie look but it was more metal than ghoulish. Still, the track is cracking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
