On February 15, 2010, The Malibooz released their new album Queens' English, which features guest appearances by legendary artists including Spencer Davis and members of The Ventures, The Troggs, The Hollies, and more.

The CD is available for purchase through CD Baby: http://cdbaby.com/cd/malibooz4
 


There's quite a story behind the making of this disc and Johnny Z has taken the time to tell it to us. You can read all about it here:


The Story of Queens' English
(a portion of this will be appearing in Goldmine Magazine.)


But of course, this isn't the full story. Each song has its own unique  tale to tell. You can get a track-by-track details here:

But as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words:
