Album
Roger & The Rockets
Dirty Stuff
(Rootsy.nu)

Price: 49 SEK

»Dirty Stuff« is the 3rd album made by Roger and The Rockets who's songs covers a broad spectrum of different Americana styles. From rock and blues to hillbilly or bluegrass with a little spice of Swedish traditional folk music sprinkled on top. The songs are varied, but always with a memorable and catchy melody and lyrics with a story to tell. They are all written and sung by Roger Häggström, the arrangements and the individual tracks are made by all the members of the band.

The recordings were made in a professional studio using top-of-the line equipment by people who knows how to use them. Real and for the most part vintage instruments and amplifiers have been used by the band giving the tracks life and an authentic live feeling.

All the five members of the band plays more than one instrument. Roger Häggström plays rhythm guitar and unusual stringed instruments from a big private vintage instrument collection, Björn Sohlin plays the violin, harmonica and cello, Niclas Vigren plays stand-up and electric bass, Mats Byström plays more or less anything, on this record he plays some keyboards, guitars, mandolins and banjos to name a few, Pelle Henricsson is the producer/engineer and also the drummer and percussionist. A couple of tunes features Annelie Vigren on backing vocals.

The previous CD’s has had a good share of nice reviews, this one probably being the best one yet.

Quote by Roger Häggström: »We started off with a nice set of tunes and shared some great moments together while recording them. The duds were weeded out in the process and we are proud of all the songs that finally
made it to the CD. The recordings surely took some time, but we all learned a lot on the way. Some things simply can’t be rushed.«
