Mother Trucker (Coloured Vinyl)

A truckload of rootsy yet lumbering cuts with funk grooves and glammy swagger. Where do you find a funked out southern rock feel without any Y chromosomes? The West London borough of Hounslow, of course. Billboard called them a “women’s lib rock group,” which fits as they were liberally liberating hooks while being proud of their sexuality. First ever US pressing, strictly limited to 500 copies all pressed on colored vinyl!

This record carries a bit of mystery to it, one online reviewer said, “Classify under the Glam Girls Hall of Fame…..Mother Trucker are fine examples of Tuff Glam Crunch-a-rama in Punchin’ Judy mode with extra horn(s). Signed by the US branch of Ember by John Madara, Mother Trucker was an all-girl UK outfit supposedly with a background in road haulage (yeah right…).” Were they actually truckers? Doubt it. Were they actually the women on the cover? …depends on which cover. Depending on the territory this record was released in the lineup seemed to change. The one thing that remained constant was the powerhouse “Allman Sisters” glammy but blue collar good ol’ rock & roll. We’re proud to finally bring this lumbering rocker stateside.
