Ah, George Thorogood. Today's master of yesterday's rock and roll. A man who has had major hits with classic songs like "Who Do You Love" and "Bad To The Bone". George and his backup band, the Delaware Destroyers, have a new album out, entitled Rockin' My Life Away, and they have certainly done just that.
Rockin' My Life Away is a great record, because the 45 year old Thorogood doesn't seem concerned with keeping up with today's rockers. As a result, this album - like most of Thorogood's other works - would fit right into the 1950's. The album is composed of 12 songs, 10 covers and 2 originals. Some of the better songs are "Get Back Into Rockin'", "Trouble Everyday", a Frank Zappa song, and "Living With The Shades Pulled Down".
Although Thorogood's classic guitar sound is toned down a little bit, Rockin' My Life Away will prove to be the best Destroyers album in a long time. So, take a listen if you're an old fan, or just stuck in the 50's.
