A flower of country music that blossomed in the age of rock, exotic Americana from Europe.
It's not just "Venus." Side tracks that reveal Shacking Blue's diverse roots.
This single by the Dutch rock band Shocking Blue shows a different side of the band than their signature song "Venus". "Sally Was A Good Old Girl" is a light country rock song reminiscent of the American South, with a pleasant sound that combines melancholy and cheerfulness. On the other hand, "Alaska Country" has an impressive melody that is somehow cool and expansive, making you feel like you're traveling to the northern lands. This work is attracting attention among collectors as a unique attempt by a European band to tackle American roots music.
