...The first CD edition of this album sold out a year before the plague. I have taken the opportunity to resurrect an old vocal by Johnny Ray, gotten a great new vocal by Gar Robertson (on this song), and have make changes in other songs. I have remixed those and remastered the whole project. I feel like this recording is a solid improvement on the original version but keeps the original vision and vibe. The band has changed,  and I am very happy to re-release the project RISIN’UP. The release will be on CD, as well as all the digital services.

MOJAVE RHYTHM- LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL
Our loving cover of a great old 50s rock tune 
originally written and performed by Shirley and Lee, 
done up in old time swing style by Mojave Rhythm. 
If you use any of the music streaming services, watch for this song to come up in the next few days under 'MoJave Rhythm'. Also, notice the cool piano by Jeff Lantz and the beautiful greasy steel guitar by Charlie Joe Wallace. It is so great to have guys like this for friends and partners-in-crime, not to mention the good friends who listen to my stuff. I appreciate it. Be well.
