This is a very rare and hard to find EP. The three first tracks is on "Drunkard In The Think Tank".

She's The One (Dubas) is a wild and funny cover of an old Chartbusters tune written by their bass player John Dubas.

Let Me Go (Loney) This rocker has a sound not very unlike the songs on “Out After Dark” A very melodic and fine rocker.

Move It Baby (Pattison) is a great cover of a song written by Hubert Pattison which was recorded by Simon Scott & The Lee Roys in 1964. It sounds very much like a wilder version of early The Beatles!

Who'll Be The Next In Line (Ray Davies). This is a fine cover of an old Kinks song that is one of their least known singles from the 60's. A good choice!

Summary: 3/4 of this EP are covers. But it's a good selection and the performace is great. The only Loney original is as usual a great song. This is Roy on top form and I'll give it 9/10.
