The CD is available at both Rough Trade Online shop or direct from trashville.co.uk See good review here. And one from Maverick here: Knox and the Trailer Trash Orchestra THE KNOXVILLE BOY Trashville Records TRCD003 4 STARS Refined, extraordinary music by a band oozing style Whilst playing at a North London gallery in 2007, Knox didn’t know it at the time but Grae J Wall and friend Robbie Tart (who are both former members of the Vibrators) were there and talked about a possible collaboration after the show. Fast forward four years and you have the product of this conversation; country meets punk sung in such an idyllic British way you can almost sense a Sunday roast being consumed whilst several large whiskeys are supped. After the first few bars of Juice On you know that you are going to love this tune. The mandolin feature prominently which, when you take into consideration Rico Ford’s exceptional playing throughout, you are not surprised one bit. There are a number of other songs throughout which impress but if one had to be picked which symbolises this perfectly then this would have to be Loser. Grae’s harmonica on this is simply marvellous with the raucous arrangement probably devised over the consumption of a keg of beer. A four year wait until the next album? I hope not. Russell Hill Also good review in Vive Le Rock Issue 2, has Adam Ant on the cover! Plus - Knox is doing some gigs with the Trailer Trash Orchestra, see review of recent gig in Hitchin here.
