With it's daft yet somehow strangely appealing album jacket, and an esoteric title to match, I couldn't resist taking a chance on this baby. The
Bridge Climbers were at one point going by the slightly lengthier moniker of
Dale Lawton & the Bridge Climbers, naturally credited to the helmsman of this Tulsa, OK quartet.
Full Bag... starts things rolling with the reggae-lite tinged "Cameo," affording a little flair to the Climbers otherwise unsuspecting mid-tempo, power-pop/wave type stuff. "Tightrope," featuring local legend
Dwight Twilley on backing vox, strums along in a more conventional stride, as do the even more stunning "Lost and Found" and "Little Girl You." The rootsy "Let's Rock It" closes this affair out in Rockpile-ish fashion. Lawton soldiered on into the '00s with a new cabal dubbed the
Dale Lawton Stampede, who can be experienced on a thing called
YouTube.
