The 1980 Listening Post - Whirlwind - Midnight Blue

 Whirlwind - Midnight Blue



1980 Housekeeping

Whirlwind

Midnight Blue

Genre: British Rockabilly Revival

3.5 out of 5



Highlights:

Midnight Blue

Stay Cool



There was a LOT of Rockabilly in 1980. I would hazard a guess that there were more songs in this genre in on e year than there were recorded from 1955-1960. Now, I’m just guessing but, holy shit on Fender Stratocaster toast. 


We really needed to move on from this as a musical society. It still makes me crazy to think that the music they were longing for was just 25 years old at the time of this recording. 


Imagine a 1996 grunge/nu-metal revival today. 


Wait…that’s sort of happening.
