DAVE CRIMMEN'S NEW CD - "BIG DADDY 'D'"- March 2002

Slamming, Jamming, Revving, Sizzling ...Crimmen's new CD lifts you up and takes you away on sweeping surge of rocking magic that literally leaves you breathless! But, with enough strength left to cry, "ONE MORE TIME!" I had to hit the replay button 5 times on "Let's Get Gone"-- a hot number that just plain takes over and makes you rock , ready or not! "Revved Up" is hot with a rockabilly edge. Believe me, there is "nothing not to like" on this new CD. Plus, the "shocker" is Crimmen's inclusion of 2 very traditional C&W tunes - sang in the "traditional style" to the max!! "Somewhere In My Mind" is unforgettable (takes you back to Hank Williams days). Also, the clean, crisp, top production quality of this CD complements the powerful song selection and seasoned musicians. This is an absolutely must have CD - it rocks, it sizzles, it takes you away! Get it on your CD player NOW! It will make you smile!

DAVE CRIMMEN'S NEW SINGLE RELEASE "Rockin' Bop Baby"- February 2000

"Keeping the dream alive"-- Dave Crimmen cuts loose in full blown rockabilly hurricane style-- sweeping you away with his new single, "Rockin' Bop Baby". Crimmen flat out delivers the goods in a 2000-shot mix of undiluted Gene Vincent with hints of Jerry Lee Lewis in this zooming dance tune. Dave Crimmen's powerful, rocker voice is smooth like Vincent and powerful like Elvis. Crimmen rocks with the purity of the originals and is backed up with a band with unstoppable grooves. The backside of the new single is "Been There, Done That" which is a rockabilly twist with a message that speaks for itself! This new single will be premiered live by Dave Crimmen and his band at the upcoming "Viva Las Vegas &endash;2000" ROCKABILLY HALL OF FAME STAGE at the Gold Coast Hotel. Don't miss it!

PRIMAL ROCKABILLY AT ITS BEST! May 1999

Dave Crimmen's C.D. "Where He Left Off" is an unexpected "tidal wave" of primal rockabilly. The first cut, "Take Me Baby" is an earth-shaker! Crimmen wrote all the tunes which are incredibly fresh including the amazing "She Can't Stop Dancing!" Every cut deserves repeat listening. And hey, the newness just won't wear off as Dave and his jamming band takes you on a music trip--the likes of which have not been heard since Scotty, Bill & DJ! (And I was there!) Dave Crimmen is a maximizer of R&R; and every true Rockabilly music fan who loves Vincent, Orbison, Elvis, etc will flip over this eye-widening, "go Kat go" 90's version of rockabilly to perfection! I won't fail to mention the astounding producer, Michael Molenda, along with band members, Patrick Walker on wild drums, Harry Mello on radical piano, Mike Bazlamit on swinging sax and Bill Shaffer on real-gone bass. You guys brought the days of "rockabilly heaven" back "real good"! My personal thanks!
