Lucy Fur

The Zoo Crew is spinning the funky, hard-rocking track "Lucy Fur" by Electric Boys from their 2014 album Starflight United, and the Zoo Freaks are loving the vibe. This song is a standout for its infectious, funk-laden groove, described in a 2014 review by Get Ready to ROCK! as a highlight of the album’s retro-tinged, danceable energy. While specific interviews or quotes about "Lucy Fur" are scarce, the band’s frontman, Conny Bloom, has shared in past discussions that their songwriting often draws from a mix of personal experiences and playful storytelling, which likely infuses the track’s sly, mischievous vibe. On Facebook, the band has posted about the album’s creation, hinting at late-night studio jams in Sweden where they blended glam, funk, and hard rock to craft tracks like "Lucy Fur." Fans on the Electric Boys Fan Club group have called it a perfect anthem for their live shows, with its punchy riffs and big chorus getting crowds moving.

Electric Boys formed in Stockholm, Sweden, in 1988, born out of a shared love for classic rock, funk, and the emerging glam metal scene. Conny Bloom (vocals/guitar) and Andy Christell (bass) were the driving forces, inspired by bands like Aerosmith and Parliament-Funkadelic. According to their bio on their official website, they started jamming in local clubs, quickly gaining attention for their high-energy performances and unique fusion of genres. Their debut album, Funk-O-Metal Carpet Ride (1990), broke them internationally with the hit "All Lips N’ Hips," landing them tours with major acts like Metallica. After a hiatus in the late ’90s, they reformed in 2009, reigniting their funky rock sound with albums like Starflight United, proving their staying power.

You can keep up with Electric Boys on their official website, where they post tour dates and merch. They’re active on Facebook, sharing throwback photos and updates, and on Instagram, where they post gritty, behind-the-scenes shots from gigs. Their X account is a bit quieter but still worth a follow for occasional news. Fans connect on the Electric Boys Fan Club on Facebook, a lively group where Zoo Freaks and others swap stories, rare vinyl finds, and concert memories.
