This hard hitting, country rock and roll band hits a home run with their
debut album. From the tragic Sister Mercy to the upbeat This is the
Time, these boys know how to rock.
The Screamin' Cheetah Wheelies' self debut is a decent album of boogie
rock, kind of like the Black Crowes meets Lynyrd Skynyrd. The
performances on the album are strong and spirited throughout, even if a
few of the longer songs ("Slow Burn", "Somethin' Else", "Leave Your
Pride (At The Front Door)" eventually just become an excuse for a jam.
The opening tracks, the scorching "Shakin' the Blues" and the joyous
"Ride the Tide", are the best songs on the album and would get a little
airplay on AOR radio in the mid-90's. Another great song is "Majestic", a
long dramatic track that with its range of emotions would point the
direction of their next album, Magnolia.

Screamin' Cheetah Wheelies Biography
Like Collective Soul and Cry of Love, the Screamin' Cheetah Wheelies
were a classic hard rock band that arrived at the height of grunge and
alternative. Collective Soul's hooky songwriting meant that they were
able to fight to the top of the charts. The Wheelies fared better than
Cry of Love, who sank without a trace after one hit, simply because they
survived to make a second album, but they never quite managed to
cultivate a true fan base.
The Screamin' Cheetah Wheelies --
surely one of the most ludicrous names in rock history -- formed in
Nashville in 1990. By the time the band signed to Atlantic Records in
the post-Nirvana craziness of 1993, the group consisted of vocalist Mike
Farris, bassist Steve Burgess, drummer Terry Thomas and guitarists Rick
White and Bob Watkins. The Screamin' Cheetah Wheelies released their
eponymous debut album in early 1994, after "Shakin' the Blues" made the
album-rock Top Ten. Over the next two years, the group toured
relentlessly, eventually selling over 100,000 copies of the album and
getting consistent airplay on AOR stations. However, most of these
copies began showing up in used bins, and when their second album,
Magnolia, appeared in the spring of 1994, it was generally ignored. Big
Wheel followed in 1998.
