George Thorogood and the Destroyers: Better than the Rest


This is George Thorogood and the Destroyers, with Better than the Rest.  I'd say he is better than most.   You like this style or you don't.   Click on the title of this post to hear and see Goodbye Baby.  Apparently just three musicians play on this record:  George Thorogood - guitar, vocals; Michael Levine - bass; and Jeff Simon - drums, vocals.  Not sure why he went with the paint splatter and military motif for this record jacket, but it looks pretty cool.  They do some songs written by the all-time great bluesmen, such as Willie Dixon, Howlin' Wolf. Eddie Cochran, Vetter Smith, Chuck Berry, and John Lee Hooker.
