Hoopsnakes - Jump In And Hang On (1994)

One of the most respected musicians in the Twin Cities, Bruce McCabe has been playing keyboards since the late 60’s. In addition to playing with Kim Wilson prior to Wilson moving to Texas to form the Fabulous Thunderbirds, McCabe has played a key role in two legendary Twin Cities bands, Lamont Cranston and The Hoopsnakes. More recently you will have seen Bruce touring with Jonny Lang.

One of their most focused efforts; the band is in rare form, the material is top-notch, and the songs are filled with great guitar hooks. On the title track, "Can't Seem to Stop Myself," and "Wound Up," guitarist Charlie Bingham comes as close in inspiration and inventiveness to the great riff-master Keith Richards as one possibly can without sounding like an imitator. With guitar this mean and songs this good, Jump In & Hang On is definitely one of the group's best albums. by Steve Kurutz
