Rock N Roll Cleopatra is a compilation album of some of Wayne/Jayne County's finest tracks. The album tends to focus on Wayne County pre-sex change years and full conversion to Jayne.

Wayne was an interesting chap who took part in the famous Stonewall Inn riots, was an influential figure on Daid Bowie's Diamond Dogs tour and album, was an integral part of the early punk rock scene and worked as a DJ at CBGB's. O

Often seen as a bit of a novelty act, I think that Wayne County & The Electric Chairs were highly under-rated and this album churns out enjoyable track after track often in various styles. The album shows a great range of styles, emotions and most of all in a light-hearted enjoyable humurous albeit somewhat crass way. Whether it's upbeat rock n roll, glam rock, punk, new wave ((Man Enough to Be A Woman) or even a couple of country type tracks telling entertaining little stories covering everything from fetishes for nookie in the toilet to the singers desire to be a woman and everything in between including tracks truly embracing rock n roll (Rock N roll Cleopatra, Evil Minded Momma and Rock N Roll Ressurection) and other humorous tracks such as Mean Mutha****in Man and F**k Off)

Don't be put off by the rude names, it's all rather light-hearted and an enjoyable album that will no doubt have you singing along and enjoying the simplicity of true rock music.
