Many Moods Of Ben Vaughn Combo on LP

Vinyl LP pressing. The Ben Vaughn Combo blazed the trail for American music that was way off-kilter compared to the competition. Their tri-state type Tex-Mex sound really shook things up. Their reputation as a live act grew exponentially with every show they played. Theirs was a twist on the roots rock scare with a reach something like The Fleshtones, outside of the standard '80s ranch stash. The sort of thing that has a tendency to get written out of history despite being timeless, it doesn't easily fit into any premeditated narrative. When The Many Moods Of Ben Vaughn Combo appeared in 1986, the Combo literally had the world at it's feet. Many of the hits you hear when you see him (and the quintet) today are on this platter. Long out of print and somewhat sought after, this was the first time that Ben's Rambler car was heard on a record. And not the last. It sounds just as fresh now as it did back then. Perhaps you're too young to have been around when this record album was first available? Maybe you wore your three copies out? Whatever your story is, these Many Moods... will lift yours in these perilous times. Don't end up sorry (like Brenda Lee).
