7-inch (Item 594225) Norton, Late 50s — Condition: New Copy

Rare late 50s exploitation grooves from the vaults of Cascade Records – monster hop rock from Joe Johnson & Bob Norris! "Gila Monster" by Dallas bandleader Joe Johnson is a perfect late 50s teen rocker – a song named after the, uh. . .star of the drive-in schlock classic of the same name! Also includes the piano rocker "Party Time" by Bob Norris, and the sax heavy "Cool Love" by Joe Johnson to close. Cool stuff that turned out to be massively influential to wild & wooly rock to come – you can hear the inspiration of "Gila Monster" from 60s surf rock all the way up to The Ramones and beyond!  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
