Track by Track Review
Midnight Auto Studio Hotrod (Instrumental)
Cheesy studio jammin' fake rock 'n' roll... going nowhere fast, "Midnight Auto" is utterly forgettable despite the Steve Douglas' sax.
Three Wheeler Studio Hotrod (Instrumental)
Fifties music machine rock 'n' roll with a Spanish edge. Never mind.
Studio Hotrod (Instrumental)
"Ditch Day" is not bad. The surf rhythm guitar, while very dry, still conveys some sense of chemistry. A tolerable and very commercial sound.
Theme For Teen Love Studio Hotrod (Instrumental)
Sheesh! Slow and slushy teenage slow dance schmaltzorama. "Theme For Teen Love" is a long way from anything that could be mistaken for cool.
