i still have this LP Album , dedicated by the band

When you listen 20 years later to an album that you liked a lot as a teenager, it’s very hard to actually know if you like it for good reasons. Does this album have real qualities or is this just pure nostalgia? For “We Shall Be Going On” the answer is : both.
On one hand, if you want to be objective, you can say that the sound is a bit thin, Jean Christophe’s voice is from time to time out of tune and his pronounced French accent a bit too present. But this album has its own qualities. The boys wrote their own songs (even if Low Rider sounds very close to Stray Cats’ Built For Speed) with varied influences from straight rockabilly to blues, with detours by neo-rockabilly and bit of country too (you can find a banjo on some songs). The covers, including Dave Phillips “The Fun Of It” are very well chosen. All this elements, and I can’t deny a bit of nostalgia too, make of this debut album an enjoyable listening experience, even two decades later.
