Bill Justis: Raunchy By Choice
Colin Escott, Goldmine, 15 June 1990
THE ONSLAUGHT of rock 'n' roll and its impact on the music scene brought forth some strange new converts. Few stranger than Bill Justis. Few less converted. However, despite his misgivings, Justis helped to work up one of the truly memorable riffs in rock 'n' roll, to which he gave the aposite title 'Raunchy'.
