Rarely Heard: Bakersfield Boogie Boys - I Get Around



In 1980 my favourite Bavarian radio music journalist presented a weird and quirky EP by a mysterious band from Bakersfield who named themselves Bakersfield Boogie Boys. There's not much known about these 3 boys and a girl, and there are only 4 songs on the album. But their versions of popular songs like I get Around, Gget Off of My Cloud and Okie From Muskogee made a lasting impresssion on me. Their only original song, Flying Tigers, isn't bad either.
