Cuba Las Vegas!
Barry Norris - bass, Warren Paine -
guitar, Steve Dietrich - vocals, Eric Young - piano
"A fucked up version of a lounge act, kind of like Tom
Jones on smack."
"Nothing special."
"If you like the extreme lounge scene with a heavy Nick
Cave flavor (sorry, that comment is inescapable from what I've
seen of them and not in a bad way) you've got to drag yourself
out if need be and have a look. With lyrics that will drag you
down right in the gutter and then laugh as they kick you in the
head." Morticia, Flipside Magazine
"If it's highballs, martinis and Tony Bennett you crave,
Cuba Las Vegas and their syrupy croon-and-swoon lounge ballads
will work their way through your veins like a dark lethargic lullaby."
- Jen hitchock, LA Weekly
"If Jim Morrison hadn't chosen to pull the plug with
booze, dope and Mr. Bubble (way to go, Jim...), and had lived
to try a second career as an angry lounge crooner, he might very
well have become Steve Dietrich of Cuba Las Vegas." - Pete
Brooks, Downtown Gazette
