Description: It's the way that you rock It's not the way you rock It's not the way you roll and roll We're still pretending Move on the time is right and Heaven's here You have to see why Now you hear when I say It's not the way you rock It's the way that you roll It's not the way you rock It's not the way you roll and roll You can believe me Yes, time and time again he looks to you You like to like them Now you hear what I say It's not the way you rock It's the way that you roll It's not the way you rock It's not the way you roll and roll I told you so, but you don't understand Don't let it go, don't let it go Let it go You're going down a one way street Well you know what I mean Yes, you know what I mean Tell me what'cha gonna do Roll me over You say you can't get in Understand why it's raining in your face It's not the way you rock It's the way that you roll It's not the way you rock It's not the way you roll and roll ___________________________________ From the ashes of Erie, Pennsylvania cover-band Crossfire, Danish-born vocalist/guitarist Henrik Ostergaard and fellow Crossfire band-mate and bassist Jimmy Chartley traveled to San Francisco to form Dirty Looks in 1984. Fellow Crossfire bandmate Boyd Baker would join them a year later. While in California and upon their return home to PA, the group had a revolving door membership, yet managed to release an EP and three independent (and hard to find) albums before Atlantic records came calling. For their major label debut Dirty Looks consisted of Paul Lidel (guitar), former Harpo-bassist Jack Pyers (bass) and Gene Barnett (drums). The resulting album, Cool From The Wire, found it's way onto the Billboard charts while getting substantial air-time on MTV for the video 'Oh Ruby' For the follow-up album, there were conflicts with original producer Beau Hill and the original recordings for Turn Of The Screw were scrapped, but the re-worked album would be the group's most successful release reaching even higher on the Billboard charts. The solid album of outtakes, Bootlegs was released in 1991, then the group broke up in 1993 following the release of the awesome Five Easy Pieces, with Ostergaard forming Rumbledog, Lidel hooking up with Dangerous Toys (and later Broken Teeth and Adrenaline Factor, his current project) and Perry resurfacing in Prong later on. Ostergaard began recording under the Dirty Looks moniker again in 1994 to record the under-rated Chewing On The Bit album. Then he worked with Rumbledog again, releasing an album in 1995 with bassist Jassen Wilber, drummer Ron Sutton, guitarist Mike Ondrusek and guitarist Mike Smith. Ostergaard put out two releases as Dirty Looks in 1996. With the personnel above minus Ondrusek and adding singer Gabriel Scott Robison, Ostergaard took a back seat in the vocal department and formed the Burning Orange project who released an album before calling it a day in 1996. Since then, Ostergaard has been retired from the music business to focus on family life. _____________________________________ Dirty Looks - Cool From the Wire Vocals/Guitar: Henrik Ostergaard Lead Guitar: Paul Lidel Bass: Jack Pyers Drums: Gene Barnett Producer: Max Norman Year: 1988 Catalog: Atlantic K 781 836 2 Track List: 1.
