16 tracks on digipak CD !
It’s 38 years since their debut album Cycledelic came out to an
unsuspecting public via the legendary Chiswick Records label…and now
(apart from the Search For Xerxes album) the remaining three original
members of Johnny Moped, that’s Johnny Moped, Slimy Toad and Dave Berk,
are back with a brand new album called It’s A Real Cool Baby.
It’s a sixteen track mix of new songs and a revisit to a few live
favourites that never got recorded back in their heyday including ‘I
Wanna Die’ and ‘I Believed Her Lies’
The original three Mopeds have been joined by long time live members,
Jacko Pistorious and Rock N Roll Robot (also know as Rob from legendary
Ska/Punk band ‘Case’)
They released their first 7” for 37 years on Damaged Goods last year,
‘Ain’t No Rock N’ Roll Rookie' hit the number 3 position in the UK vinyl
chart and was warmly received by Moped fans as ”sounding just like a
Johnny Moped single”, no higher praise could be awarded!
A second single called ‘Real Cool Baby’ is due out in late January and
like the first it will have a non-album exclusive track on the
B-side…and come in two different vinyl colours.
After last year's appearance at Blackpool's Rebellion festival they will
be hitting the road in April for an album launch show at the Lexington
in London and plans are afoot for more dates in the UK, Europe and possibly further afield after that.
