563.0. "CJSS" by PFLOYD::ROTHBERG (Get the priest as well...) Tue Jun 20 1989 14:19

                
                CJSS is  another  RacerX type band.  They consist
                of
                
                David T. Chastain on guitar
                Russell Jinkens on lead and backing vocals
                Mike Skimmerhorn on bass, backing and lead vocals
                Les Sharp on Drums
                
                Note where the  name  CJSS  comes from now.  They
                have  a few albums,  I  believe  3  on  Leviathan
                Records and Chastain also has  a  couple  of solo
                albums.  If you like RacerX, you'll probably like
                these guys.

563.1	Like Racer X, huh?	COORS::G_HOUSE	No, you're not there...	`Tue Jun 20 1989 16:32`	12
	Ah, I've heard a little about Chastain. He's supposed to have done studio work on quite a few other peoples stuff. I saw part of an interview with him somewhere and he seemed sort of odd. Kind of a quirky personality, I guess. He claimed that he had thousands of songs he'd written just laying around and that he wrote a song every time he picked up his guitar. Seemed like kind of an arrogant statement. How is he as a songwriter? gh

	I haven't heard his solo stuff, it's supposed to be a lot better than CJSS, but again, the CJSS songs are similar to RacerX, but not even that good. Kind of crunchy sounding. It might be worth picking up one tape as they all pretty much sound the same. I recommend Praise the Loud. - Rob -
563.3	Scream Guitars...	SALEM::BUTKUS	My mom says I'm special	`Thu Jun 22 1989 14:38`	13
	I really like the CJSS albums I also like the CHASTAIN albums his guitar work is different on the two different bands ( if you understood that). Praise the Loud is a kickin album.... Anyone hear his instrumental work??? M B
