All of them are awesome, especially the french pianist. Fortunately, this guys are still alive haha

[@f9qo]

Isn't the pianist the guy in the airport that played boogie?

[@colombiamedellinfarm-finca6795]

Someone below said they would want this band to play at their Wake!!!, No way man !!!, if these guys played at my wake I would leap from my coffin and jump and jive all around the floor, scaring the crap out off every fecker!!! there, this band is just so so good!!!, this is performing in every sense of what performing means, just brilliant.

[@lizkasapos5605]

I saw these at a blues club years ago. My husband worked with Gary Potts. Amazing harp player who I hear is now retired from the music scene. Shame. This band is brilliant, high energy.

[@mr.vinegaroon3132]

These dudes fully capture the 1950's version of "cool." It all fits. The shoes, the oversize sports coat, the rockin' drummer, the Berry guitar, the funkster on harp, love every note of it.

[@doshiamullins8675]

Catchy song 🎶 How many boots can one girl wear, Big John Wayne only had one pair :)

[@susanhollenbeck9229]

I've heard this song by this group a dozen times now and it gets better each time. Henri Herbert on piano is as good as JLL

[@gerardlambert7607]

Les pompes à carreaux et la teinture du rockeur, les mouvements de tête et le phrasé de l'harmo, la main droite du piano, la sobriété de la contrebasse et du batteur, la barbiche et les lunettes du gratte-caisse, ça tourne rond, et en plus en noir et blanc, j'adore !

Great track. Surprised to see no mention of Henri Herbert. One of the world's greatest boogie and rock piano players. See you in June, Henri, at The Bear Club in Luton, UK.

Henri's mentioned in the blurb. He was a member of the band for a number of years. Click on 'show more'.

1st time to hear the Cadillac Kings but if they come anywhere it won't be the last. Love everything in this video each member gets their turn to shine and shine they do.

[@larrynealwaxmuseum]

Very good, very good. When I saw the title of the song and then after hearing the lyrics of the song, it reminded me of the Bobby Freeman record out of 1958 on Josie Records, BETTY LOU GOT HER A NEW PAIR OF SHOES. The name of the group somewhat reminds me of the mid fifties group, the Cadillacs. Good Post! Larry N. Boyington, aka Larry Neal, former curator of the Wax Museum on the big 1520 KOMA
