The Piltdown Men Album

Under Appreciated

THE PILTDOWN MEN
 
 
One of the albums that caught my eye was The Piltdown Men by the Piltdown Men, an instrumental rock band from a full half-century ago.  Hallmarks of their recordings are twin saxophones, booming kettle drums, and real nice guitar figures that range from Duane Eddy-style “twang” to early surf guitar a la Dick Dale.  The recordings are still highly enjoyable, having a playful flavor without being juvenile at all.
