LP version now available!!
Deke’s first long-player with the Whippersnappers is chock full of great new songs: lots of wild rockabilly, great 1950s-style country numbers, and dramatic Western numbers. Two of the group’s biggest numbers from their first EP are included as well: “Here Kitty Kitty” and “Wild Wild Thing.”

Musings
Articles and thoughts from the mind of Deke
The Golden Sahara at the Grand National Roadster Show
As far as 1950s custom cars are concerned, the Golden Sahara is the top of the heap, the craziest Jetsons-inspired 1950s vision of the future ever built.
RIP Scotty Broyles
Scotty became an absolute legend with his yearly appearances at the Viva Las Vegas festival, charming audiences with his great musicianship, hilarious stage patter, and volume of personality.
Keel: The Right to Rock
What can I say? I have a soft spot in my heart for cheesy 80’s metal, and Keel is like melted Velveeta in that genre—the cheesiest!
