Brian Setzer’s ‘Nitro Burnin’ Funny Daddy’ for the first time on vinyl

Surfdog Records and Brian Setzer have announced that for the first time, Setzer’s classic album Nitro Burnin’ Funny Daddy will be issued on vinyl. It will be released on limited edition 180 gram, red transparent vinyl on 25th June 2021.

Originally released in 2003, Nitro Burnin’ Funny Daddy was Brian Setzer’s eleventh solo album and when it was released he said it was the most personal record he had ever done. The album followed his big-band release Boogie Woogie Christmas from the previous year and saw him back to his rockabilly best, taking in doo-wop (“To Be Loved”), bluegrass (“When The Bells Don’t Chime”), rootsy-rock (“Don’t Trust A Woman (In A Black Cadillac)”) and going on a cinematic Wild-West romp (“Wild Wind”).

Produced by Dave Darling at Unit A Studios in Palm Springs, CA, the trio is rounded off with Johnny Hatton (Double Bass) and Bernie Dresel (drums).
