Life Of Rileys

Some records by people called Riley. That's the concept today folks. Its a simple one but then I'm a simple guy.

We start with four American musical styles including rock 'n roll from Billy Joe, some zydeco from Steve and his Playboys and naughty Agnes with her single entendre jumping blues. We follow that up with four reggae Rileys including the father and son team of Jimmy and Tarrus.

Today's post is dedicated to my old friend Steve Riley. He's not the Cajun one - he's no playboy and I doubt whether he would recognise a Mamou if one walked up to him and slapped him in the face - but he's a pretty cool dude in his own right.

"Flying Saucer Rock and Roll" - Billy Lee Riley

"Big Fat Hot Dog" - Agnes Riley

"Church Point Breakdown" - Steve Riley & The Mamou Playboys

"All The Pretty Things" - Ashley Riley

"Lead Them" - Desmond Riley

"Walking Proud" - Martin Riley

"Love And Devotion" - Jimmy Riley

"Lion's Paw" - Tarrus Riley

Other musical Rileys are available, some of whom are accompanied by men in extraordinary jackets
