KING LOUIE AND THE LOOSE DIAMONDS: Memphis Treet: CD

Sep 21, 2007

Tagged on the back as “power pop” and “Memphis grease,” this is some real jukebox rock. King Louie wears his heart on his sleeve, and his sleeve is a denim jacket, because he is the real deal. Two of the diamonds are Harlan T Bobo and Jack Oblivian, upping the rock purism here. So get to the bar at 7, make them play this CD, kick back with the locals, argue about dogs’ rights, and maybe find a new friend at closing time.
