The 7" Club: The Crocodiles - Black Tar

Welcome to a new Friday feature I'm calling the 7" Club, where I discuss a 7" record that I love. Some might be hard to find (which is half the fun of owning vinyl anyway). All will be full of great music.

For the first week I've chosen The Crocodiles great 7", Black Tar.

Black Tar is The Crocodiles lone release. It's was a side project of Randy Rose (Mad at The World, Rose, Mothership). Black Tar was released by Velvet Blue Music and according to their website, you can still pick it up from them. ($3.50 for two songs. Well worth it!)

The Crocodiles were a pure rockabilly. Side A song, Grease, is a hard hitting rockabilly track. Side B, In Your Arms, has more of a swing/country feel. Both songs are great and fans of classic rockabilly will love this 7".
