Fentones - The Breeze and I
Odeon GEOS-185 Sweden 1962
Sleeve: Very Good+
Vinyl: Very Good+
Jerry Wilcock (lead guitar), Mick Eyre (rhythm), Walter (Bill) Bonney (bass) and Tony Hinchcliffe (drums) backed first Johnny Theakestone, then Bernard Jewry in the 'title role' of Shane Fenton. Onstage, the Fentones featured a strong, distinctive and driving sound played on their matching white Fender guitars. Their 'solo' recordings ably demonstrate a confident group adding some neat touches to their playing, Wilcock especially producing some tasty licks, yet they managed to retain a commercial foot on the ground. Parlophone producer Ron Richards, who was often assigned to the more rock 'n' roll orientated acts on the label overlooked the Fentones recording career, four cuts making up the brace of singles that dented the lower reaches of the charts during 1962. With a harsher edge than some of their counterparts this may explain why the Fentones have been cited as a possible influence on both the Challengers (from California) and Australia's Atlantics - both modern "Surf" instrumental groups!
Original Swedish EP; containing "The Breeze and I", "Just for Jerry!", "The Mexican" and "Lover's Guitar". Both sleeve and vinyl are graded VG+.
