Giovanni James: "Shame On You"
Giovanni James is a hot young talent about which I've been able to dig up very little, aside from the facts that he has been picked up by major label Warner Brothers with only two singles under his belt, of which "Shame On You" is the most recent. It will be interesting to see if WB allows him to develop along this stylistically singular display of talent, or if they will insist on pairing him up with EDM/trap producers and attempt to mold him into a crossover pop star.

1990: "Texas Eyes", Guana Batz
When the Guana Batz hit the English psychobilly scene in 1982, the Cramps and the Meteors were about the only other bands of note thinking along the same lines. That situation would change dramatically in the ensuing years, but the Guana Batz always hewed a little closer to traditional rockabilly themes and never became completely unhinged the way the Cramps preferred it.

1990: "King of Love", Dave Edmunds
Dave Edmunds may not have been an incendiary soloist but there was nothing about his rhythm work that ever disappointed. And he could still rip off a few quality leads in a rockabilly vein when he needed to.
