RIP Davie Duncan, one of my absolute favourite ever lead vocalist and front of the coolest British rockabilly bands of all time. 🏴
A very underrated band
The Shakin' Pyramids do rockabilly as good as or better than American bands, and their sound is not dated. Discovered them in the early '80's and they sound just as fresh now.
A very underrated band and fucking awesome. Much better than the stray cats.
James G. Creighton, R.I.P. ❤(Born : 1959 - Died : February 17th, 2021)
Sad to hear that.
Back in 1981 me and my school mates played truant from school to see them in virgin records Manchester
When we arrived they had finished the set they had done in store.
We were gutted but then delighted as the boys came out on the street to play for us!!
Never forget bopping in the street while crowds gathered around.
RIP James absolute legend.
Fuck ! I didn't know Jim had died. I first met him when he worked in McChiulls pub in Glasgow. He was behind the bar and had some music playing. It sounded like a cross between Stevie Ray Vaughan and Dave Lee Roth. I asked him who it was and it was none other than the mighty Popa Chubby. R.I.P. Jim
RIP dear Jim. A great talent.
Very sad to say that my old friend and musical compadre, the immensely talented Davie Duncan passed away on the 8th June 2024. RIP Davie

Condolences to your talented friend and ex-colleague, we miss him.
Among the "Rockabilly" singers of the early 80s, he is 1st in my top 3, because of his exceptional singing and phrasing.
Greetings, Ben. 😔
You have now reached “These Quiet Lands” in the afterlife. R.I.P. Davie Duncan. 💔😥
Just heard this :( We're mourning here in the States. What a phenomenal talent he was.
Fabulous to see those comments and what an honour to have produced this album.
Fabulous Job ! 👍
Great tunes
Nice job , absolute cracking album .
Thanks from Poland! We here Shakin Pyramids in 1982 from Polish plate
Fantastic times! The LP is up there with many of the other great pieces of vinyl History!
RIP James G. Creighton
RIP Dave Duncan
I bought the original LP still got it
a really Cool Cat Band
My 4 track 45 of Tennessee rock n roll will be buried with me! Slap Preston Lanks!!! I had the pleasure of meeting James at the Raucous records 25 year anniversary some time ago, he had so much time for me, chatting at the bar, hands rough as a coal miners! Crazy man!
These guys were the bees knees of the rock revival. Only Cavern got anywhere near them in the modern age.
Possibly the coolest-ever playing of a bodhran.
Always thought the bodhran was a perfectly complimentary instrument to rockabilly
Glad to have Jimmy as my friend 🙂💥
Haven't heard this for thirty years !!!
Yeahhhh !!!!
Seen these guys at the arena Middlesbrough about 1980. Great days. Please turn the clock back someone lol
My friends !!!
Saw 'em early 80's In Stockholm. Great band, great show 👌
Brought to see them in the magnet in Dublin by my Da when I was about 12 . Absolutely electrifying live experience. Still have the vinyl and in the top ten of most influential records I have . Never missed a chance to introduce the pyramids to others
the soundtrack our lives... rock n roll yeah
ROCKABILLY AWESOME
Saw them busking on the Streets of Edinburgh in 1980, great sound.
I'll rockabilly 500 miles
still fresh , still gets me tapping away , great stuff
Awsome Album, great Rockin band from Scotland
Have the original vinyl with autographs of all, including Preston Rumbaugh. Got to see them in Chicago at a club called Misfits (circa 81) and later at a couple of Detroit clubs. Gotta say that first show blew my mind. Everyone dancing (and without a drummer). Still one of the best live shows I've ever seen. Phenomenal band. RIP James....
The Ultimate Buskers... "Peace"
still on of my fav songs of all time. total foot tapper. remember buying this ep back in 80/81 brilliant
I DID TOO, if i remember right they played outside virgin records in southampton?/
Saw them at the Underground, Stockholm, June 1981. They were great!
they played at my college in 1983, awesome! was a great time for rockabilly
１６歳の時に見つけた時、ストレイキャッツより衝撃的だったこの曲。
¿Cuba libre? jejeje ojala, someday someday
Saw them at the glasgow Apollo,what a band.
saw them at Montreal's Club Soda 1983 - happy times...
..I think I was there..
It was a great show! I was 17!
This band was the BEST!!!!
Rockabilly time once again!
ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT 😈
Great song! 👏🏼
best original billy sound in 80s someone get them and go on tour for fxxxxx sake
wooow TOP
I saw these guys back in '81 in a smallish venue in West London. I played pool with James G Creighton just before the gig and I held my own. Up on stage they were just awesome. I feel blessed that i got see one of the best British rockabilly bands ever at their best.
Cool story
That same year was the one and only time i played in a band. We only made one recording, a rockabilly version of the nursery rhyme "Old Mother Hubbard'. I was on stix, some other guy on bass and me mate Fraser, on vox and geetar..... then,after 4 hours they kicked me out when they both realized i couldn't keep time. Interestingly, Fraser's mom had had an affair/gone out wid Marty Wilde (allegedly). Marty Wilde had occasion to tour with Colin Hicks (Tommy Steele's bro) and the Cabin Boys in the late 1950's in and around West London. Colin Hicks drummer was Jimmie Nichol back then. In 1960 Jimmie Nichol formed his own band for a very short while called Jimmie Nichol's Lucky 13. Four years later, whilst I woz otherwise engaged being born, Jimmie Nichol was made an honary Beatle for 13 nights for their first Australian Tour, filling in for Ringo who i think had tonsillitis. Jimmy Nichol was paid a small fortune for his 13 nights in the spotlight . Within the following year Jimmy declared himself bankrupt allegedly citing his brief time as the drummer for the biggest band in the world as the reason for his downfall.... so, not so lucky 13 then! Now, that true or as near as dam it true story, did not make the cut of me two books wot i wrote with lots more true but tongue in cheeks stylee shit and music related stuff in it, innit? Certainly, if you want a copy of either version of me books, then please let me know - said the radioactive kid.

Haha! Even cooler story.
Alex Thomas I watched them perform on the street in Covent Garden in 1980 or 1981, when they were busking and hadn't yet become famous.
Alex - You need to upload that recording of 'Old Mother Hubbard'.
Cooooool
Great music. I had the good fortune to see these boys as they passed through the Canadian Prairies in 1983. I took the bands song list off one of the monitors after the show. I just found out through Wikipedia that they disbanded mid way through the Canadian tour. I must have one of the last, if not the last song list's they printed...and that's kinda cool.
Thank ya kindly...🎸🥁🎻🎙
I would like to thank the genius who thought "You know what this rockabilly song needs? ... A bodhran!"
see imelda may play it on johnny got a boom boom
Yesss, I'm a big fan of Imelda's. Was playing "Mayhem" just a few days ago :)
great mix, now seen POLECATS 3 times and STRAY CATS once , keep rockin
just love these guys
Yesterday I played the vinyl on a Lenco LP player in the garage. Amasing sound. Bought in the 80ties. Still playing these 3?
Winnipeg is where I saw them play. So cool.
Fantastic...leaves the Stray Cats for dead....
They played a two night stand at Larry's Hideaway in Toronto in 85. The place went mad, my favorite show ever.
I was there too, I'll never forget it.
these guys they were fucken legends remember seein them in the toon rock n roll is here to stay! It will never die! best good time music EVER!!!!
