notes

A great big beat of piano pumping rockabilly rock and roll. This is a rockin` and boppin’, jumpin’n jivin’, sitting on the sofa smoochin’ CD. Much more than just a little bit, it`s a great big beat. Strollers for the
sweeties to shake their stuff to, screamin’ solos and sexy shouters. Should you put this platter on to get your house party started? If you like a great big beat you should!

Jeff Potter has several obvious influences such as Jerry Lee Lewis, Fats Domino, The Big Bopper, The Blasters. His recording has a timeless style, though the 50’s make up the backbone of this cool cat.

Within this big beat you can feel the 40’s jump swing right into the 70’s ted revival. Jeff Potter is an outstanding musician who has been a player in the U.S. for many years. Throughout his career he has enjoyed many rave reviews in the international press regarding his bilities. He selected truly talented support (including Betsy-Dawn Williams and Graham Tichy ) to craft this exciting CD. The arrangments and sound quality attest to his efforts and experience. There are 15 fantastic tunes, each stands on it’s own. There isn’t any fluff or fodder to fill this recording out. Every song on this CD tells a great story and you will want to dance or dream to them over and over again. If you dig piano pumpers you must own this CD.

"High Octane" is a jiving, bluesy tune with brilliant piano work that the Killer would appreciate. Try and sit still to this number, it’s a great dance tune. "Time On My Hands" is a slow swinging, big hunk of love, west coast strolling ballad. Sweet. The title track "She’s Got A Great Big Beat" couldn’t get any fatter without bursting through the speaker seams. This jiver is showing it’s stuff. Tight, bright and wailing. The tune is FAT.
Like instrumentals? "The Romp" has it all, beautiful guitar lines, skin solos and bass work that is fine. A medium paced jiver that is cool as a cucumber.

"Great Big Beat" is the CD for folks who want to dance, party or make out in a ‘55 Ford. Jeff Potter has a sound that suited and booted teds will love the same as rock and roll swingsters. “Great Big Beat” is a great big record from a truly talented artist. Jeff Potter is IT with a really BIG beat.

    I was ready to either park my Valkerie Six Shooter at the drive in with my pallies and best gal! Jeff's a fresh talent who should be all over the main stream media! His music is original, all American and just the kind of thing that the world could do with a whole lot more of! I've played it over and over and even had friends enjoying listening to it! You go Jeff!
