Reviews
Gene Summers - Do Right Daddy [ENREC122]
- "Bill Haley's) Comets legend Joey D'Ambrosio. Gene Summers still sounds great, and with these top musicians you are assured of a Killer album!" -Raucous Records, 2004 UK
- "-All told "Do Right Daddy" is like a breathe [sic?] of fresh air. This is how new albums from 50s originals
should sound. Ten out of ten". -Trevor Cajiao, Now Dig This! Magazine, 2004 UK - ".....about 65 years of age, Gene Summers sings and rocks like he did 45 years ago, when he recorded the immortal " (online)
- "Gene was one of the first rockabillies ever to visit Norway. I've been a School Of Rock 'n Roll" over 20 years ago, and it's great to hear he still delivers!" -Flipside Records, 2004 Norway
- "Gene Summers is a true Rock & Roll legend since his recordings of tracks like 'School Of Rock 'n Roll', 'Alabama Shake' & 'Nervous' some 40 years ago. We cut 11 tracks here in Enviken in 2002 with him & this cat still has a fantastic voice, it's hard to believe that he is a day older than 30! From pure Rock & Roll to primitive Rockabilly. Gene is backed by members from other Enviken bands like: Sonny Rogers & The Kingpins, Riley McOwen & The Sleazy Rustic Boys & Red Roosters. Another legend is also featured on this album: Joey d'Ambrosio from The Comets plays the sax on two of the tracks. On top of that Gene Summers has supplied us with four tracks of which one of them is an instrumental track recorded at the same session as 'Nervous' in 1958, to which he added vocals a few years ago. This is a Rock & Roll legend that still got IT!" -Enviken Records Sweden
