Steelism - 615 to FAME

Steelism - 615 to FAME

from $9.98

“Vinyl junkies and other lovers of vintage wares will relish dissecting each track on 615 To FAME, connecting Steelism's moves to everyone from Ennio Morricone to Duane Eddy to legendary steel guitarist Pete Drake, whose "The Spook" the pair covers. But even those who've never heard an all-instrumental pop record should get a kick out of this highly danceable, heavily evocative album. As knowing and well executed as 615 To FAME is, what it mostly communicates is fun. Steelism offers that in many flavors: original, smoked, and extra-twangy.” - NPR
