Non Stop Rock n Roll Voodoo Action

About Me


The Vincent Razorbacks have existed for about five years as the brain(dead)child of low brow artist Vince Ray. The original line up included Lord Ford on UFO guitar and the inimitable Dave Razorback on double bass. And THUS, the bands name came from mixing Dave RAZORBACK and VINCENT Ray...it ain't rocket science, just too many lagers and a band with no name and a first gig coming up.
Line ups came and went, usually with Lord Ford adopting a different instrument every couple of weeks...he really is a talented chap and you should check out his Fordy Myspace page.
Another long term contributor has been Tom Spencer, he of the Yo Yo's, the Fast Lane Roogalators and now the Loyalties. He often steps in on bass or guitar, another talented fellow!
The band has gigged all around the UK and played Germany, Zurich and Dublin. The biggest thing this year has been the Motorshow, playing four times a day for two weeks in the boiling July heat...surrounded by stunt motorbikes and toxic clouds of burning rubber. Vince lost his voice, found his voice and gave it away to a bag lady.
AND, if you care to look, you'll find two CD's available in all good stores...and on the Raucous Records web site for mail order.
