REVIEWS
BBQ stands out from the pack by doing a one-man mixture of 1950s R&B, Brill Building pop, 1960s garage and punk rock. The Montreal-based BBQ is Mark Sultan, formerly of Les Sexareenos. His second full-length, 'Tie Your Noose', is out on Bomp Records, one of the last signings by the late Greg Shaw. Over a dozen originals, Sultan will have you swooning through all the aforementioned styles with equal skill, with a great cover of the Rolling Stones' "Out of Time" thrown in. - Medleyville |
One man, one guitar, two drums, one clanky thing, and that's fucking that. N-prime thought he sounded like a skiffled out Tommy Roe, and Beam said it was the sound of a man with many, many records (yes, records) of bands from the '50s with "Del" in their name howling "c'mon everybody" and "twisted the night away" at girl scouts and their moms. I'm with'm. Minimal instrumentation, but full-figured in sound, structure, and impact. If you wanna pack some fun into your next pork picnic, get the disc. Shit, how much can it cost to book the guy? - Craig Regala / Lollipop |
This is nice. Picture the late 50ies/early 60ies. A couple of kid [sic] have a party and some of them pick up some instruments and start playing rock'n'roll music. The parents are pissed off but the kids have a blast. Well that's what BBQ sounds like: old rock'n'roll music straight from the garage, raw and soul shaking with an oldschool rhythm and blues twist. I just love this album for it is timeless. And now the surprise, this is a one man band, Mark Sultan is the guy. I don't know how he does it but it is mighty beautiful and I will definitely try to come visit one of his performances if he ever comes to Europe again. This is just pure magic and this album will take many turns in my cd player. - You're Not Alone Zine (Netherlands) |

BBQ's guitar borrows riffs alternately from 1950s rockabilly, as on the opening track "C'mon and Love Me," and 60s British Invasion rock n' roll, as on the second track, BBQ's cover of "Outta My Mind." BBQ effortlessly dances between these genres on Tie Your Noose, and it makes for a rewarding, holistic rock listening experience.
Oh hell, that sounds cheesy: "a holistic, rewarding rock listening experience." What I mean to say is this: If you don't like BBQ, you don't like rock n' roll!
It's really no exagerration. The production of Tie Your Noose is something to be saluted as well. The LP sounds like it might have come right out of the 1960s, as if you might have heard some of the tracks on the Nuggets or Pebbles 60s garage rock compilations: trebly, crackling with white noise, echoey vocals -- yet all the more compelling because of these things. The only thing that clues you into how recent the release must be is the heaviness of the guitar. There were a few acts in the 1960s that had guitars as heavy as BBQ's, but they're few and far between. Being of the cult of the heavy guitar, I was glad BBQ hadn't chosen to imitate 50's rock n' roll too much in this department; BBQ's guitar is a powerful, full-fisted weapon of destruction, cranked up for the post-punk generation. The drumming at times reminds me of Bam Bam from the Flintstones -- a simple, relentless pounding that threatens to cave your skull in with every sonic "thump" delivered. It's the kind of drumming that could cause trauma to the head.
Tracks like "Waddlin' Around" reveal an abundance of catchy pop hooks as well as really great songwriting talent. "Year Old Wine," which follows "Waddlin' Around" on Tie Your Noose, sees BBQ returning to the breakneck pace that characterized his debut LP. If 1950s rock n' roll had ever produced a thrash band, they'd have sounded exactly like this. As BBQ almost certainly is, I'm a huge fan of 50's rock n' roll myself, and the fiery demons of Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochran, Carl Perkins, and Joe Clay are definitely informing the music here. Echoes of Bill Haley or even Chuck Berry can be heard in BBQ's vocals, which seem to be singing to you from across decades of static-y transistor radios, evoking a time when it was cool to collect tin toy robots and sneak girlie mags into your room at night. (Who am I kidding? It's still cool to do these things.)
The song "Hang it Up" sounds like a classic punk rock song -- again with Bill Haley on the vocals, perhaps a slight Kinks twist in the guitar work. Great stuff -- one of my favorite tracks on the album. "Burn it Down" is a frenetic 50's rocker that might have caused seizures had it actually been released in 1955. Hell, the seizure-inducing power is still there.
Tie Your Noose closes with "Record Machine," a 60s garage-sounding number set at a brisk pace that further displays Mark Sultan's almost flawless rock n' roll sensibilities. Tie Your Noose is a highly recommended 2005 release.
Overall Rating: 9 out of 10

I´m not at all familiar with Mark Sultan or his previous bands such as Les Sexareenos and the Sultans. However what he delivers here is a drift away from his usual style and with BBQ drifts in to the Rockabilly and R ´N´ B genres of the late 50´s and 60´s. Does it work? Of course it does because he plays all the instruments on here and he manages to capture them times by doing it live! While almost every band uses studio trickery in one form or another this isn´t the case with this album. It´s all done with the old days in mind and the old days he´s captured. This album is best played at parties or failing that played loud on your system if alone. While playing you sup some beers and then you get the feel of what all those parties must have been like in the 50´s and 60´s with these kind of tunes playing. 12 tracks in all and everyone sheer excellence though ´C´mon And Love Me´, ´Year Old Wine´ and ´Burn This Town´ did it for me. Production is second to none so here´s something even your parents might dig - that´s if they were cool in the 50´s/60´s though! - Steve / Full Frontal (UK) |
It may take a few minutes to adjust to the stark sonic assault of the one man band known as BBQ, but suddenly, unexpectedly, what may have been annoying you a moment before has burrowed into your eardrum and is tickling your brain's G-spot. There it is: the spirit of rock & roll, authentic as anything you care to mention. Mark Sultan (ex-Spaceshits and Les Sexareenos) plays guitar and drums simultaneously, a la Hasil Adkins, and performs a stack of tunes that sound so much like authentic late 50s rock and roll songs you'll be checking credits and doing Net searches to make sure they're not. They're not. The guy just has the gift. With a voice that changes a bit from song to song, Sultan has the edge to belt out raunchy garage rock ("Outta My Mind ") and the soulfulness to pull off a Sam Cookealike performance when he wants to ("Shake Real Low"). With the trend toward minimalism making stars of duos like The White Stripes and The Black Keys, Sultan's one-man approach should rocket him to the top. - DJ Johnson / Cosmik |
One man , one guitar, two drums, one clanky thing, and that's fucking that. N-prime thought he sounded like a skiffled out Tommy Roe and Beam said it was the sound of a man w/many many records, (yes records), of bands from the 50's with "Del in their name howling out "c'mon everybody and "twisted the night away at girl scouts and their moms. I'm with'm. Minimal instrumentation but full figured in sound, structure and impact. If you wanna pack some fun into your next pork picnic, get the disc; er shit- how much can it cost to book the guy? - Craig Regala / Lollipop |
Ex-singer of groovy nineties Montral rock legends Les Sexareenos and The Spaceshits, BBQ's Marc Sultan slaps on his best Bo Diddley mask and lets it all rip on Tie Your Noose. The twelve tracks on this one-man band's third album groove as much as any underage-girl-lovin' bass-heavy four-piece, and the songwriting ain't too shabby either. Crunchy, thick guitars mix with a driving drum sound creating a thumping sparse fullness. But what makes this album most pleasurably listenable is Sultan's smooth-as-shit-and-just-as-hot vocal delivery. His voice is fur reel, a beautifully fifties-style lead bleat that rises above the jangly doirty of the music. This guy's got a set of pipes that would make Paula Abdul want to get down on her knees and American Idolize hiom on the spot. Particularly mind-bleuging is the second track, Outta My Mind, as well as a thoroughly well-done version of the Stone's Out of Time. One of the best rock albums to come out this year! -JG, Heads Magazine , Vol 5 Issue 5 |
BBQ, aka Mark Sultan, is a one-man band. No, not another one of those bedroom pop projects so popular these days. BBQ plays 50s and 60s dance party music, old-school R&B, and even a bit of rockabilly. He not only wrote and performed all the instrumentation on the album, he does it all live. He uses foot pedals for a kick and a snare, hangs a tambourine around his neck, all the while playing the guitar and singing. If for no other reason, that is validation enough to give Tie Your Noose a listen. Despite obvious reasons, there is no bass or cymbal work on the album, but somewhat remarkably, you hardly miss them. The production is such that the lo-fi trebly guitar, simplistic drumming, and rhythmic tambourine fill up the space almost entirely. The production doesn't sound like a typical crappy lo-fi or an intentional lo-fi recording; this album literally sounds like it was recorded in the 60s. The songs on Tie Your Noose are fairly ecclectic, but they maintain a good amount of quality. "Don't Hold Out On Me" is a soul-driven track that would make Sam Cooke proud. Mark also does a decent job covering Rolling Stones' "Out of Time." This is easily the best Bomp! Records output I've heard to date. The typical Bomp! lo-fi rock is stepped up a notch with better songwriting and a more effective recording. If you like other Bomp! artists or The Kinks and The Sonics, check out BBQ. Mark Sultan does a good job showing that he isn't just a gimmick. - Delusions Of Adequacy |
Yeah! SO REFRESHING! Late 50s/early 60s vintage-sounding rock'n'roll of rebellious garage-y edge on the historic Bomp! Records. Dirty rhythm'n'blues guitar licks, stripped down steady bass-drum/tambourine beats (re: this is an one-man band; a guy that plays guitar and percussion at the same time), and tons of heartfelt rock'n'roll vocal melodies that will take you back to days of innocence and rebellion. The early heavy RnB-influenced Rolling Stones meet the seminal garagey-r'n'r sound of Johnny Kid and the Pirates. Balls-out rockabilly (Eddie Cohran, Gene Vincett, Buddy Holly) meets Motown vocal melody! Turn it up! Dance! Rebel! Play with Dan Sartain, the Husbands, the Cramps and the Reverend Horton Heat. Hail Roc'n'roll. This is awesome! - Zookeeper |

Un aventure de grande classe pour les punks qui se respectent ... - Alexis kacimi / The Fake (Switzerland) |

This is the warm feel of Buddy Holly meeting Hasil Adkins, Carl Perkins and a lucid Legendary Stardust Cowboy around the 18-gallon keg on a cold night, with a fire raging in their bellies as well as the upturned oil drum on the ground beside them. Sultan plays a tough guitar and lets his natural voice shine through. Unashamedly retro and proudly rocking, BBQ delivers a dozen tunes with a suitably raw cover of the Stones' "Out of Time" among them. (There's also a Slim Rhodes' song credited but it looks to have been dropped at the last moment). The BBQ originals draw from diverse wells - rockabilly and hillbilly country prominent among them. Where the last King Khan album, for mine, was a little too faithful to its soul roots, BBQ shakes rather than stirs the ingredients. The cocktail packs a punch without relying on massive distortion or fancy tricks. You shouldn't need umbrellas and fruit impaled on swizzles sticks to have a good drink. There's a heartfelt message in the liner notes that says, in part: "I hope this fuckin' world implodes soon and takes all you competitive back-stabbing wannabe rock-star poseur fuckheads to a better place". Could you say it better? You might be over the one-man band thing, but give this a go. Sizzling. - The Barman / I-94 (Australia) |

BBQ is a frantic and rough one-man band brought to us by Mark Sultan of Les Saxarenos fame and beyond. He does all this live without multi-tracking and it sounds like a full frat rock revival combo. The music is frenetic, explosive and energized. This is high-octane turbo oldies. - Tom Schulte / Outtasight |
BBQ es en realidad Mark Sultan y el es el encargado de tocar todos los instrumentos en su proyecto que pareciera ser una banda pero que en realidad no lo es. Sultan se encarga de tocar guitarra con sus manos, la bateria con sus pies y un pandero a la usanza de un collar. "Tie Your Noose" es un disco que llega directo al corazon, de esos que te alegran la vida y el alma con nada. Las canciones estan ejecutadas en forma rudimentaria, simple y suenan arcaicas y prehistoricas. Pero la calidez que trasunta te atrapa fácilmente. Esa combinación de punk con sonidos que parecieran ser sacados de finales de los 50's y principios de los 60's, suena mucho más convincente que muchos registros de algunos crooners de la epoca, que finalmente terminaban pecando de melosos. Si no fuese por que "Tie Your Noose", es un registro que suena contemporáneo, podria pasar fácilmente por algun documento de la autoría de Sam Cooke o Buddy Holly. Las limitaciones de tener que tocar tres instrumentos al mismo tiempo terminan siendo una ventaja. El disco suena salvaje, crudo y convincente. Esto es rock and roll de verdad, autentico, directo a la vena y sin nada que pueda alterar su escencia. Todo es disfrutable en "Tie Your Noose", desde el cover de los Stones ("Out of Time") hasta las infecciosas "Burn this Town" o "Outta my Mind". Cuando las cosas son hechas con el corazon tienen mas valor que la mas preciosa y perfecta joya jamas conocida. Este es el sentimiento que se devela de un album como "Tie your Noose". Acogedor, humano, donde todos sus ingredientes hacen de este un disco delicioso y disfrutable de principio a fin, como muy pocos lo pueden hacer en estos dias. - Ivan Daguer / Especial35 |
Mark "BBQ" Sultan is back with a new rockin' record! As you all know, BBQ is a one man band. Mark plays all the instruments at the same time and it's recorded live. The record starts with, "C'mon And Love Me," and while it's an okay intro, the second song really got me going. "Outta My Mind," is a flat-out winner. It's like the Sonics, The Kinks, and The Downliners Sect's song "Outside" all at once. BBQ reminds me of so many bands/artists it's crazy. Mark's singing often reminds me of Ritchie Valens, but on "Don't Hold out on Me," I was instantly struck with an image of Sam Cooke, and that's pretty freakin' cool. I don't know if was on purpose, but "Shake Real Low" is a lot like Sam's "Twistin' the Night Away," too. Don't get me wrong, though. While it may not be as raw as BBQ's previous releases, this record is still rough and rockin'. This is the kind of propulsive music that makes you want to dance. If you ever have a party and you want to liven things up, play this and the fun will begin. - Nothing To Do |
Not knowing what I was getting into, I saw that it was done by one guy, and there's a cover of the Stones' "Out of Time." "Awright," I thought, "I'll plunk down my eight bucks and take a chance"--and it fucking paid off. This record is great, sort of in the vein of Flat Duo Jets or other minimalist stuff, but rockin' in a twanged out way, like maybe the Oblivians. Comparisons don't really do the record justice, though, suffice to say it smokes and ain't no joke ... - Trasher / Notes from the Underground |
I think it's said best on the CD booklet to one man band Mark Sultan's new release that sounds like it's been dug outta the 50's and dusted off real, real nice! "Dedicated to people who do what they love, no matter what" and on a other note "I hope this fuckin world implodes soon and takes all you competitive back stabbing wannabe rock star poseur fuckheads to a better place. Or maybe you'll all get those major label contracts you've been waiting for and finally stop swing dancing." That being said this music deserves your ears. Nuggets style, garage rock tunes that are tasty, simple gems with a generous dose of grit and a splash of Buddy Holly's ghostly dust. - Craig Goossen 8/1 Culture Bunker |
Mark Sultan is a rock n roll treasure. The man just doesn't stop churning out killer record after killer record and not even a lack of bandmates can keep him from touring and making said records. Case in point: his one man band BBQ latest and greatest effort 'Tie Your Noose.' There's a little more variety in the songwriting here than on his first LP, which really helps make a case for numerous repeat listenings. Mark just might be my favorite rock n roll singer living today, and it's nothing short of remarkable that he can sound this soulful while simultaneously both playing guitar and drumming. Hits include, "C'mon and Love Me", "Year Old Wine", "Shake Real Low", aw fuck it, the whole goddamn album is a nonstop party from the first song to the last. - TK / Terminal Boredom |
With a tambourine around his neck, a drum at each foot and a trebly vintage guitar in hand, Mark Sultan - BBQ - makes music that's fat- and gristle-free. Cymbals, bass, production value: This one-man band doesn't need 'em. The result is a collection of songs that sound like scratchy 45s dug out of a bomb shelter sealed in 1962. With little variation or arrangement, these 12 tunes grab you by the hips and jerk and twist. - Ken Partridge / Hartford Courant |
BBQ is actually a one-man band in the form of Mark Sultan, who simultaneously sings, plays the guitar, shakes a tambourine (around his neck of all places!), and kicks unholy heck out of an improvised snare/bass drum kit. The music itself is a gritty, echo-laden witch's brew of psycho-crazed R&B and swamp 'n' hamhocks Garage Rock as might be performed by a homeless deep-fry cook on a street corner in the French Quarter of New Orleans. Vocally, Mark is obviously influenced by Sam Cooke (an uncanny resemblance in both style and delivery) and The Isley Brothers. The overall musical structure gives nods aplenty to Bo Diddley, Eddie Cochran, Bob Dylan, The Seeds, Sun Records, Buddy Holly, The Bobby Fuller Four, Ritchie Valens, and The Spencer Davis Group. Yep, a rockin' good time all the way around! I haven't touched my guitar in well over a year, but Tie Your Noose has stirred an uncontrollable desire within me to pull the ol' Epiphone out of its case, plug it into my long-suffering amp, and rock like a BBQ into the wee hours of the night. -Moser / Under The Volcano |
BBQ (aka Mark Sultan) is a one-man band who bases his lo-fi retro rock squarely in the late 50s, when rockabilly was king. He stirs up the dusty ghosts of Elvis and Carl Perkins while adding the caustic neo rawk-out attitude of Flat Duo Jets and The White Stripes. Sultan sings and plays all the instruments live to tape, a basic ensemble which appears to consist of a heavily reverbed guitar, a bass drum, a snare drum, and a tambourine. At one point he shows his penchant for soul on "Don't Hold Out On Me," which sounds like a Sam Cooke song run through a fuzz box. Another standout track is his take on the Rolling Stones' "Out Of Time," which rambles along the straightaway following the unrelenting drum beats. Let's face it, your dad's music was never this cool. - Mish Mash |
In a world of roots-conscious two-person blues-punk combos, BBQ has raised the bar by proving you can do it all by your lonesome. Thanks to the magic of foot pedals, Mark Sultan handles both the guitar and the backbeat on his first album as BBQ, Tie Your Noose, and if his rhythmic style is a bit less elaborate than that of, say, Bantam Rooster or the Flat Duo Jets, his guitar work is both tough and melodic, and unlike most of his peers he's not afraid to let a natural sweetness show in his voice. The songs on Tie Your Noose have as much to do with rockabilly and classic soul as guitar-shot blues ("Don't You Hold Out on Me" sounds like a lost Sam Cooke number, and "Burn This Town" would do Johnny Burnette proud), while Sultan can make with the big rock or ease off into a lighter-impact approach with equal skill, giving this set a welcome sense of aural variety many blues-punk hard-liners lack. - Mark Deming / AMG |
The parlor trick of two-member garage-rock-blues bands (Flat Duo Jets, Mojo Nixon, White Stripes) is sawed in half by Mark Sultan's one-man-wonder. With the aid of foot pedals, Sultan strikes up rudimentary, yet surprisingly dance-worthy backbeats for his infectuous rhythm guitar playing. He's equal parts Pebbles garage rock ("Outta My Mind"), slap-echo rockabilly ("Burn This Town" and a cover of The Stones' "Out of Time" filtered through "Summertime Blues"), and R&B crooner (the Sam Cooke styled "Don't You Hold Out on Me" and "Shake Real Low," and the barn-burning "Waddlin' Around"). If these sides had been recorded in the late '50s, they would have no doubt served as inspiration for The Wailers and Kingsmen as they cut loose in the frats. Instead, they're delivered through a magical med-fi portal just in time for your summer cookout dance party. - Eli Messinger / Amazon.com |
BBQ is one Mark Sultan, formerly of Les Sexareenos and the Sultans. With the release of "Tie Your Noose", Mark totally delivers the goods. Abandoning the garage rave-ups of his previous bands, Mark instead focuses on a rockabilly/pop crooner hybrid. Wailing away on his guitar and pounding on his drums, all recorded live, Mark comes across as some demented synthesis between Sam Cooke and Buddy Holly. This is the record the Flat Duo Jets never made. - John Fleming / The Missoulian |
What a fuckin' great one man band Mark Sultan is! It's just amazing how he manages to do this on his own.. Here's his follow up LP anyway and it's amazing of course. Wouldn't have it any other way. Continuing in the same direction as the last one but also bringing in a whole lot more. Where the last one sounded a lot rockabill this new one has a little more R'n'b and 60's shit thrown in and is more varied. Like the promotext says, this is what frat-parties sounded like in the early 60's! Yeah, that's friggin' it! This is one great frat party! Let's go! Bring out the beer! Dance! Yell! Drink! Dance more! Drink more! BBQ! BBQ! BBQ! Yay! - Thomas / Savage Magazine |
Hey, whadja know... rock & roll rootier than Canada Dry's polar bear! And what's best about it is that this rock & roll is a one-man band affair! Yes, believe it or not but BBQ is the work of one soul, a soul going by the name of Mark Sultan who sounds like your typical four-man garage band whether they be from 1959 ("C'mon And Love Me") or 1966 ("Outta My Mind"), but whatever, Sultan does it all by himself and I ain't talkin' Eric Carmen either! It's all pretty good garage-a-billy cum BACK FROM THE SCUM fun that doesn't sound like a re-think via some 40/5-year hindsight but music being made by some TRUE FAN and not just another trust-fund kiddie trying to pass time between various "cultural milestones" in his life. To put it bluntly, this is a nice racket that coulda been one of those discs Beaver got when he joined that record club oh-so long ago! - Black2Com |
One man, one guitar, a kick drum, a snare set up with a pedal, and a tambourine. (I'm assuming ten fingers, but we all know what happens when one assumes.) No multi-tracking, everything recorded live and lo-fi. Doesn't get much more minimal than that, does it? You might imagine that, given the rather spare nature of the instrumentation, the music would end up all sounding the same. You'd be wrong. Sultan wrings a wide variety of sound out of his modest collection of tools. If you overlook the fact that the beat doesn't change much over the course of the record (and c'mon, seriously, how many beats can you get out of two drums by kicking them?), it would be difficult to tell that it wasn't a "full" band. Even then, actually; there are a few drummers around with full kits who don't do much more than BBQ does. Tie Your Noose is 12 songs of straight-ahead, bare bones rock & roll. According to the press release I received with the disc, it's all done in the style popular between 1959-63. Well, OK. I wasn't breathing air myself before late 1960, but it doesn't sound like an unreasonable claim. Not quite so raucous as The Konks, but there are some rowdy moments. "Outta My Mind" (different song, yet again I'm sensing a theme here), "Year Old Wine", "Tie Your Noose", "Hang It Up", and "Burn This Town" all chug along at a pretty good clip, edging close to the garage at times, while "Record Machine" has its own Buddy Holly-esque feel to it. The slower numbers ("Waddlin' Around", "Don't Hold Out On Me", a cover of the Rolling Stones' "Out Of Time") very definitely have that late-Fifties teenage record party feel to them. - Bmarkey / Blogcritics |
The new debut album by BBQ isn't so much of the work of a "garage band" as it is the work of a "garage man". That man, Mark Sultan (who is also a member of Les Sexareenos), plays every single instrument heard on this record, at the same time (he plays drums with his feet, guitar with his hands, and he wears a tambourine like a necklace). While he's not the first person to ever do this, it's still pretty cool. What's even cooler than the gimmick are the 12 tracks of primal garage rock ooze that BBQ hits you with, rapid-fire-style, in just over a half hour. These tracks were recorded live over a three night period in Montreal, but they sound like a recently un-earthed artifact from another era altogether. Mixing early Kinks, The Sonics and the wildest 50's rock you can think of, BBQ has come up with a sound which resembles the wild garage/frat rock that was pouring out of the Northwestern United States in the early 60's. Since Sultan is playing all the instruments himself, there isn't a lot of dynamics, build-up or instrumental dexterity. However, these limitations hardly ever become noticeable, thanks to hip-shaking stompers like "Outta My Mind", "Don't Hold Out On Me" and cover of the Rolling Stones' "Out of Time". A perfect choice for a night of sweaty beer-soaked partying. - Dave / Losing Today |
From low expectations to incredibly high ones, BBQ's Tie Your Noose delivered ten-fold. I would place Mark Sultan (of SPACESHITS and LES SEXAREENOS fame) near the top of my favorite songwriters/performers list. Put simply, the guy knows what the fucking he is doing. BBQ specializes in pure, real Rock'N'Roll, flawlessly executed and genuinely fun. Bomp's Tie Your Noose is his strongest showing to date, packed with tunes are so good, they'll induce spit-takes and cries of 'I must've heard this classic song before 'somewhere,' all across the land. For many (myself included), one-man-bands have a way of becoming a bit tiresome. Lucky for us, tunes this great never get old. - Mitch Cardwell / MRR |
BBQ - Tie Your Noose is full of very unique music built on original music translated from a one man band Mark Sultan. His latest CD is put out by BOMP!. This guy has to have some eclectic tastes in music. Whatever the influence, you can certainly pick out a considerable wide range of music genres and artists on your own when you hear BBQ belting out his music and words. On our first listen these words came out of our mouths: "Buddy Holly, Rock & Roll, Old Rock & Roll, Blues, I wish he could be our house band, DAMN!, Punk rock baby, you know it's good when you feel in between your thighs!" Mark Sultan is a one man band that plays everything with severe passion. - Jeff Jackson / Music Filter |
