Eilen Jewell - Shakin’ All Over

 

Don't forget the Blasters!

 

Lee Rocker, bass player for Stray Cats, has put out a number of enjoyable albums.

 

Formidable!!

 

Man, that's the way to spend one minute and thirty-nine seconds!!

Awesome! Where can I get this record? Does anyone know anything about The Mystery Trio?

 

Almost anything by The Blasters...

 

Track down this box set

 

Ronnie Hawkins - Mary Lou

Dale Hawkins - Suzy Q

Screaming Jay Hawkins - I Put A Spell On You

 

Yes. Psychobilly.

Even better, saw The Flat Duo Jets open for The Cramps. Top-notch, drugged-out rockabilly.

 

Memphis Rockabilly Band - Live at Johnny Ds

 

Isn't that the album that Wanda does Elvis's Hard-Headed Woman ?

 

Those 2 songs were put on different albums. One was on the Rockin' With Wanda album, the other was put on the There's A Party Goin' On album. Then she also has a couple of Elvis tunes on her debut self-titled album (such as Long Tall Sally).

 

l believe it was called PsychoBilly- could be wrong mind.

 

Do anyone has any compilations of rare rockabilly from the '50s/early '60s to recommend from the last 5 years? I am mostly looking for stuff that hasn't been compiled before.

 

I picked up The Rockats - Make That Move (EP) yesterday as a blind buy.

 

Paladins (1990) Follow Your Heart

 

Darrel Higham (2015) Behind Bars

 

Buzz Campbell & Hot Rod Lincoln (2006) Invasion From Mars

 

Brian Setzer (1988) Cross Of Love



Stray Cats has 2 studio-versions from this song (1990 & 1992)

 

Hayden Thompson

 

What's the best Charlie Feathers compilation (vinyl)?

Thx.

 

I knew Hayden pretty well for awhile although I haven’t seen him in years.

Besides his singing career he drove a limo in the area where I worked at a music store, so we struck up a friendship, or at least a nice acquaintanceship.

A nicer guy you couldn’t meet and it was fascinating thinking about him being there so early in the formation of rock or rockabilly or whatever. I went and saw him perform a couple of times and he was very good.

He drove a limo and he’s kind of an interesting obscure musical footnote here in the US, but he told me when he went to Sweden to perform all the “kids” were singing along with him and knew the words to his songs. He was still a semi hero to them I guess.
