Album lore

Issued by Golden Ear Music in 2021, "Bony Moronie" collects sixteen tracks by Howie Casey & The Seniors, a British outfit rooted in the late 1950s and early '60s Merseybeat and rock and roll tradition. The album includes renditions of twist numbers such as "Double Twist" and "Let's Twist Again," alongside covers like "The Boll Weavil Song" and the title track "Bony Moronie." Casey’s tenor saxophone often leads the charge, adding a brash edge to the band’s tight, swinging arrangements. Though the record surfaced long after the original Merseybeat era, it retains the period’s straightforward energy and dancefloor readiness. Tracks like "The Fly" exemplify the group’s blend of rock and roll grit with a British sensibility, appealing to collectors seeking artifacts from the scene’s lineage. With modest listenership on digital platforms, "Bony Moronie" stands as a niche but genuine document of a band steeped in the sax-driven sounds of early UK rock.
