Listening to THE RICH HANDS kind of reminds me of being a kid and sitting on the floor of my parents’ living room in front of the record player with my mom’s collection of 60’s albums. They’ve got that garage sound down, and they even add in some surf and out of control guitars for good measure. A lot of bands doing this these days, but THE RICH HANDS do it better. The songs are sweet and catchy without being corny, and I even dig the lone instrumental song on this record. These youngins from San Antonio released these tracks last year, although I just heard it for the first time last week and word on the street is that they’ll be playing up here sometime this summer, I can’t wait.
