Our Take

Fred Lane and His Hittite Hot Shots have taken us on a bizarre musical journey with their latest album, "Car Radio Jerome." This collection of songs is like nothing we've heard before - it's a mashup of jazz, funk, and avant-garde weirdness that somehow manages to work in the most delightful way.

From the moment the first track kicks in, you know you're in for a wild ride. The band's unique blend of instrumentation, including trombones, saxophones, and even a kazoo, creates a cacophony of sound that is both chaotic and strangely appealing.

Lyrically, Fred Lane is in a league of his own. His witty, twisted rhymes touch on everything from everyday life to absurdity, and his delivery is reminiscent of a vaudevillian showman. Tracks like "Car Radio Jerome" and "High Hats" showcase Lane's theatrical flair, while "Zookeeper’s Holiday" delves into darker, more surreal territory.

Overall, "Car Radio Jerome" is a head-spinning, toe-tapping delight that defies categorisation. Fred Lane and His Hittite Hot Shots have crafted an album that is equal parts hilarious and thought-provoking, and it's a must-listen for anyone looking to expand their musical horizons. Strap in, folks - this one's a wild ride.
