In 2002, the best and brightest Dusters line-up – guitarist McMahan, bassist David Barnette, and drummer Jeff Perkins – reunited for some Nashville-area shows which, in turn, led to a return to the studio by the band to record Dang! with Dan Baird producing. Although the CD went out of print nearly as rapidly as it was released, it's well worth digging up for the dedicated fan of roots/blues-rock, and is currently available digitally through iTunes, Rhapsody, eMusic, and other download sites. McMahan leads his classic power trio line-up through a baker's dozen of red-hot blues-rock romps, about 90% of them original tunes, with only a sparse handful of covers thrown in for flavor.
Dang! cranks up the amps with the album-opening "Goin' Up Easy," a McMahan co-write with esteemed Music City scribe Tommy Womack, the song a steamy slab of locomotive piledriver rhythms and blistering fretwork. The menacing "Mexico," co-written with Baird, who also adds rhythm guitar if I'm not mistaken, is the best ZZ Top song that that lil' old band from Texas never recorded, full of muscular riffs, endless swagger, and a sordid storyline that would make the Senoritas blush. The song's uber-cool false ending is complimented by a hot, brief bluesy outro. McMahan's "Red Sun" is a funky little sucker, with a sly rhythmic undercurrent, a mind-bending recurring riff, and rolling guitar solos that are warmer than a runaway bonfire.
