Charm, modesty and a lot of talent. As one of the most characteristic sounding groups in Europe today, PERRY DEAR & THE DEARSTALKERS display their very distinctive sound that has made them one of the most «in demand» groups on the Big Beat scene. Nowadays there are a significant lot of contemporary bands playing garage rock. Furthermore there are a handful of groups playing «Merseybeat» and even fewer «Shadows instrumental bands». And then there’s PERRY DEAR & THE DEERSTALKERS. Steeped in the golden age of the instrumental circa April 1962 to December 1963, when Fender six string bass instrumentals posed a serious threat to both Merseybeat and the «Shadows guitar groups». It is no exaggeration to state that PERRY DEAR & THE DEERSTALKERS are experts in their field. Just listen for yourself. After several EPS and their fantastic debut LP «Six-String Holiday», the talented Norwegian quartet went to the famous London-based Toe Rag studio for two days and recorded their second LP, «Oh Dear!». Its mindblowing sound will catch you in one instant. The boys’ influences range from JET HARRIS, THE DAVE CLARK FIVE, BRIAN POOLE AND THE TREMELOES and SOUNDS INCORPORATED to “newer” acts like THE KAISERS, BILLY CHILDISH and many more. Don’t miss out on this fabulous piece of vinyl!
