The Blackjacks

The Blackjacks

After New York’s City Thrills broke up in 1983, frontman Johnny Angel returned to Boston and formed the legendary Blackjacks with Whitey, original Dropkick Murphys drummer Jeff Erna and their former roadie Rafe Mabry to play guitar. The recorded Blackjacks tracks re-live yesteryear and the days when the Fenway didn’t have a big hotel where the Rat used to be. If you were there, and you just might have been, remember a time when Percs were cheap, beer was warm and you could walk Mass Ave without any concerns about your future health.

The Blackjacks are the classic rock sound of Boston.
