Goodfinger

Mike Williams' band Goodfinger has a new album out: Killing With Kindness. Along with Michael LaMorte, they are the songwriting duo who wrote and performed the music for the upcoming children's animation/music project, The Rattles.

Goodfinger is fronted by Scrappy Calloway, who's sultry vocals breezy through the album. Scappy's vocals work their way around a song much in the same way Terri Nunn of Berlin did. Listen to Another Night On My Own. This song would be perfect on the radio or remixed for the dance floor.


GOODFINGER

Outside could have been recorded in the late 70's/early 80's. It's infused with all the stuff that made the early CBGB's bands so exciting. Goodfinger would have been a perfect opener for Blondie or Television. Since I mentioned the 70's/80's, I have to point out that Goodfinger do a sinister cover of Squeeze's Take Me I'm Yours.
