The Caddy Tramps are known for their brand of catchy rockabilly, and here we have a collection of some of their best songs. Their past recordings are mostly upbeat and easy to sing along to, and this live set is no different. Starting off with full speed songs and slowing down the tempo for some so-so grooves. A good primer for the wanna-be Tramp fan.
