Monogroove Popsicle Drive Thru

The other day I was contacted by a very polite chap named Rin Lennon, who asked me if I was still taking submissions for my blog, The Purple Bottle. Now, The Purple Bottle has been dormant for the last fifteen years. However, as he asked so nicely and sent me mp3s of his band, Monogroove, how could I refuse?

The first song that came up on the Monogroove demo album was a versuion of the old Young Rascals song, Good Lovin'. A craking take on it which banished memories of the Grateful Dead stretching it out to 40 minutes!  Their original material is as strong; songs like All Day All Night (not The Kinks' tune) and Dangerous are melodice but with an almos Garage band flair. Their Sixties influences are pretty obvios and that's right up my street.

It's very nice to find a new band to get behind - I shall be checking out their other albums to be sure
