"DAVE TAYLOR strikes again! This young, British Rock'n'Roll veteran has come a long way. He has travelled alone - alone, but faithful to his individual style and his own idols. Again, Dave has hit the nail right on the head. A rolling piano, sturdy double-bass, howling saxes and hot guitar solos are just what Rock'n'Rollers want. Now is the time for Dave's success.
This is Dave's third LP during his stay in Finland. Dave rocks harder than ever before - harder than anyone else at present. On this album, Dave's idols - Louis Jordan, Wynonie Harris, Roy Brown, Amos Millburn, Merrill E. Moore, Little Richard and many others - meet and swing in Dave's interpretations, in Dave's music and in Dave's own, distinctive style. This kind of swing and joy of rhythm is seldom heard in Finland.
All recordings were made 'live' in the studio. This way Dave hopes to give the listeners a chance to sense the real 'live' performance feeling - the gist of Rock'n'Roll. This record is for those of you who want to enjoy their Rock'n'Roll authentic, raw, steaming hot and burning. This record is for those of you who love Rock'n'Roll. This is Dave Taylor - THIS IS MR. ROCK!"
