The KingBees – My Mistake

We are not exactly sure what mistake The Kingbees are owning up to in this propulsive, neo-Rockabilly gem – they seems to be apologizing for not choose the straight life over the life of a Rock and Roller (and maybe mistaking a guy for a girl “in the market place”) – but, we are pretty sure they are not really that sorry.  In spite of leader Jamie James repeated protests that he has made a mistake, he clearly is happy with his decision to “rock as fast as (he) can” and, we are too!  My Mistake was a small regional hit from The Kingbees eponymous 1980 album.  It might have been a bigger hit were it not for label troubles and some bad timing – it came out just before the Rockabilly Revival took off.  But, in spite of that it is still a solid rocker from a solid album.  We hope you enjoy it, no mistake.
