Bio:

Jetboy is an American San Francisco-based hard rock band founded in 1983 by guitarists Billy Rowe and Fernie Rod. Best described as a blend of edgy rock and roll with a traditional blues based influence. Jetboy got the attention of music fans and record executives alike in Hollywood during the mid 1980s. The band transplanted themselves to Los Angeles in 1986 after signing a deal with Elektra Records. Their musical influences ranged from punk rock to rock 'n' roll to blues. Their 1988 debut album Feel the Shake peaked at 135 on The Billboard 200.After parting ways with original bass player Todd Crew in mid-1987, the band was joined by former Hanoi Rocks member Sami Yaffa. Yaffa, a member of one of the groups Jetboy had found most influential, was now a member of the band as their new bassist. In August of 1987 Todd Crew died due to a drug overdose in the hotel room of Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash. Jetboy continued on into the 1990s before disbanding in 1992. However, over a decade later, Jetboy reconvened, toured and recorded a new EP, Off Your Rocker in 2010. Having been absent from the studio for some 20 years, Jetboy recorded Off Your Rocker in a fully organic mode. The band played all in the same room together in a “live-style” format in an effort to duplicate the way the songs were written, all together, in a true 1970’s fashion where the band could feed off of one another’s energy.Jetboy has continued to gain in popularity, and has continuously played to large crowds at festivals across the United States including Rocklahoma, The South Texas Rock Fest, Rock the Bayou & The M3 Festival two times.On June 1st 2012 Jetboy did a 25-year reunion for their debut album ‘Feel The Shake’ at the Whisky A Go Go in Hollywood. The show was also a release party for the movie Rock Of Ages which featured a few images of Jetboy. The line-up for this show included all original members with a surprise appearance by their second bass player Sami Yaffa who is currently playing in the Michael Monroe Band. This was the first time they all shared the stage together in over 20 years. Jetboy plan to continue with the original line-up with Charles Norman on bass who replaced Yaffa for the Damnednation tour in 1989.January 25th 2014 during NAMM weekend Jetboy supported Faster Pussycat at the Whisky A Go-Go to a sold out crowd to celebrate the club's 50-year anniversary.Jetboy geared up in late 2015 to bring their style of rock n roll to the stage again. The band performed at Riki Rachtman's Cathouse Live on August 15th 2015 at the Irvine Meadows Amphitheater in Irvine, California.Three songs from Feel the Shake were featured in the 1989 movie The 'Burbs, starring Tom Hanks. They were "Bloodstone", "Locked in a Cage" and "Make Some Noise". Additionally, two songs from Feel the Shake, "Feel the Shake" and "Make Some Noise" were also featured in the 1989 movie She's Out of Control.

Album:

Glam & Sleazy Rock veterans JETBOY inked a deal with Demon Doll Records to release a their first ever Greatest Hits compilation CD entitled “Now and Then”. Comprised of the band’s strongest material from 1986 to present, “Now and Then” gives fans a collection of remastered Jetboy tunes that will satisfy their every taste, including a previously unreleased track.As requested, here’s the currently no easy to find CD featuring 14 tracks which drips Glam, Blues, Sleazy and Punk that fans have come to expect from the legendary San Francisco bad boys. “Now and Then” pushes the envelope with remastered versions of their biggest hits, “Feel the Shake”, “Make Some Noise” and “Snakebite” from their 1988 Billboard Charting debut “Feel the Shake” as well as “Stomp It (Down To The Bricks), “Evil”, “Heavy Chevy” and “Bullfrog Pond” from their 1990 Sophomore Release “Damned Nation”.Jetboy’s distinctive sound will hearken you back to the late 80’s and early 90’s with the new whiskey soaked, groove oriented tracks “Going Down (Above the Clouds)”, “Perfectly Wrong” and “Dogs Gotta Roam” as well as cutting loose the brand new, never released ass kicker “Dying Inside”.Jetboy is one of those bands that seemed to always be on the cusp of breaking out. These guys had a huge following in their native San Francisco as well as a strong support base on the Sunset Strip back in the mid-80s, managed to get several songs on movie releases (five different tracks from the Feel The Shake album were spread out between Tom Hanks’ movie The Burbs, and the lesser-known Tony Danza flick, She’s Out Of Control), and scored a couple of decent video hits on MTV’s Headbanger’s Ball.But between the death of original bass player Todd Crew (found dead in Slash’s hotel room…), and the grunge phenomenon of the early-to-mid-90s, Jetboy never managed to get the traction that was necessary for them to fully hit the big time.Too bad, as Jetboy was one of the more original sounding bands of the era,.Probably as well known for front man Mickey Finn’s sky-high mohawk as they were for most of their musical catalog, Jetboy combined the glammy edge of bands like Hanoi Rocks and the New York Dolls with the punk and sleazy look of a lot of the underground Hollywood bands. As such, their sound was a hybrid that always came off as fresh and original.On this collection, Demon Doll manages to capture the best of the band, for the most part, with seven tracks coming from the band’s two major label releases, 1988’s Feel The Shake and 1990’s Damned Nation. “Feel The Shake”, “Heavy Chevy”, and “Evil” are the band’s bigger songs, at least as far as airplay goes, and “Stomp It (Down To The Bricks)” and “Make Some Noise” are a couple of the band’s more popular songs with their fans.Personally, I was really happy to see “Snakebite” included here, as I think it’s one of the best songs in the band’s catalog. “Bullfrog Pond” was an interesting inclusion as well.What really makes the album is the inclusion of the hard-to-find EP Off Your Rocker studio tracks and the previously unreleased “Dying Inside”. All four of these songs are very much in the vein of the harder-edged material that made Jetboy popular with their fans… and maybe kept them off of radio… with Finn’s gritty vocals and the guitar tandem of Rowe and Rod still ripping things up.With no ballads to bog this collection down, ”Now And Then” is a full-tilt rock collection that I think casual fans will find a lot to like about and one that will give new listeners a solid cross-section of material to choose from.
