Rockin' In The Same Ol' Way
Dave Taylor, 21, is the most sensational act in Finnish show - business today.
He was born in England and after a colourful and wild way of life and string of smaller hits on the continent he finally settled down in Finland and became an overnight sensation while performing at the Culture House, where the biggest rock'n' roll event, King of Rock took place.
Dave didn't win the title, because he was still a citizen of Britain, but he was the absolute top of the bill that night and received raves from critics, and the Dave Taylor fever was a fact.
The secret of Dave Taylor's success is first class showmanship, excellent ability and a touch of rock feeling in the true fifties tradition.
Some people even felt that Dave is a modern 1979 version of the legendary Jerry Lee Lewis, with the same kind of guts and drive.
This title giant is without a doubt the most promising and talented performer in years on the Finnish rock scene.
And he certainly has something to give to every true rock'n' roll lover no matter where ever in Europe he is heard.
