Dennis Hopper Choppers previously featured at Bagging Area here, almost a year ago, with a song from Ben Nicholls' one-man-band first album. He's since expanded to become a five piece and put out a second album, Be Ready, a few months ago. The fifties rock 'n' roll, country and 60s surf influences are still there along with a fuller band sound, a bowlful of spaghetti western and some lovely Vox organ.

One Man Band
Dennis Hopper Choppers are a one man band from London. Ben Nicholls plays sitting down while singing, playing guitar, bass drum, hi-hat,vox organ and bass pedals. His album Chop-LP came out in 2007 with this song Little Johnny as the opening song, a mixture of shuffling 50s rhythms, rockabilly and country, Link Wray and Dick Dale, 60s rock (see the song Listening To The MC5), bassy surf guitar and a dash of menace. It's good stuff.
