Description
Unremarked by the mass media, vintage American rock 'n' roll / rockabilly music is currently enjoying a third generation revival. In the spring of this year the UK Hemsby Rock 'n' Roll weekender was packed out by the largest audience of revelers in its 24-year history of biannual boogying, and similar events are flourishing elsewhere in Britain, across Europe and even back in the USA. Of course the hardiest of vigorous veterans still attend (some of them starring on stage!) but the majority are now the offspring and the sons & daughters of the sons & daughters of original 1950s rock 'n' roll fans. A vibrant market for this sixth volume in our acclaimed Great Rockabilly series.
Keeping to the proven formula, this set again mixes famous names with an authoritatively chosen selection of equally stompin' rarities, many of which are inevitably more sought-after than the familiar classics. Another potent brew. 64 tracks of rebel energy guaranteed to satisfy the testosterone-fuelled in 2012.
