Woo-Hoo Review

 

by Mark Deming

  [-]

During their brief four-year existence, the Richmond, VA, teen combo the Rock-A-Teens released a mere 13 tracks, one of which was the Top 20 single "Woo-Hoo," best remembered for its near wordless vocal refrain. This disc is as strong a portrait of the Rock-A-Teens' virtues as one can hope to find these days, capturing their raw energy and youthful enthusiasm with ease. Divided between spunky instrumentals and sharper vocal numbers (including "Janis Will Rock," a tribute to hometown gal Janis Martin, and "That's My Mama," in praise of a cooler-than-usual parent), Woo-Hoo makes clear these five guys weren't virtuoso musicians, but they sure knew how to make with the rhythm, and what guitarists Bobby Walke and Vic Mizelle lacked in finesse they more than made up for in real rock drive. The songs (mostly originals) are solid stuff, and Mizelle's vocals are admirably tough and fiery when he chooses to actually sing something.  Woo-Hoo is plenty of fun and makes the important point that they had more than one cool song in their repertoire.
