Lance - Working Overtime


Most of us know that sound of the clock ticking away... Be it at school or work sometimes the damn thing moves so slow... Not in this case. I'm not sure who exactly "Lance" is (Mike Guidici?) but he is working overtime for the love of his babe and he pretty excited about it by the tempo and groove of this tune. I know nothing about this guy but the label and song title was enough for me to take a chance and only at a few bucks this is a little nice score. A real nice red hot rocker that really moves and has a great guitar break. Who knew that Iowa rocked this hard? As this Sonic Record label is out of Milford Iowa & The Iowa Great lakes Recording Company. It is the only time I have ever seen this label but it look like they put out a bunch of stuff. Check the discog. HERE: IGL Records. I'd ask you all to drop any knowledge you could on this record and the record label for that matter but i know that is a futile request... To any one else paying attention dig this uptempo rocker will ya? My guess is 67 on the year but that could swing a few years in either direction...

GREAT TUNE!
I'd guess early 70's. Kind of a Flamin Groovies-esque, homage to 1950s rock and roll. Wow. Hows the flip side?

If I could have ever learned to play guitar half-assed & I had half the nerve this poor bastard did & I knew how to go down to some record label &/or studio & convince the talent scout dude that he should put me on for at least one record & if I could sing party decent, & I did all this, THIS would be the product of my fruitless tree.
