America is littered with cover bands. Whether renditions follow the original note-by-note, or are so reinterpreted as to make the model unrecognizable, the versions of the archetype are still surrogate. Greencard - a bunch of limeys torn from the motherland and deposited in these fine parts - began to feel a bit peckish for the music from across the pond. Although by way of playing in Petri dishes, or with pints, is not known, the cure they discovered for this malady was to form their own fab four. The band covers good ol' British rock ‘n' roll. So quit your whinging, move your arse, and go have a butchers. Bung me over a pint while you're at it.
