Recommended record of the week 1st of February 2008 V/A FOOT TAPPIN' & DANCE AND SCREAMIN' FESTIVAL It ! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dj At (NL) style of playing is firmly rooted in the musical styles from the early 30's till the early 60's. Being an original of the Rockabilly scene and a vivid dancer himself, he knows exactly what it takes to get a crowd on the dance floor and more importantly, to keep them there all night long. Whether it's Rockabilly, Rock and Roll, Rhythm & Blues, Hillbilly Boogie or (Western) Swing that you need, he'll find his way. During the last couple of years At has received invitations to come spin the wax at various Rockabilly and Swing festivals around the globe. Now, with this compilation, you can have him at your home too! |

Recommended record of the week 1st of March 2007 Hot Rhythm And Booze - We Gotta To Get With It ! Since 1996, Hot Rhythm & Booze has been dedicated to recreating the style of obscure late 50s and early 60s American rock'n'roll. This fireball of an album is packed full of "white rock" -inspired originals, as well as covers of rare songs that usually slip under the radar. Powerful rock & roll from Paris ! |

Recommended record of the week 2nd of December 2006 THE NU NILES – DESTINATION NOW We got a few copies of this gem! Japanese edition, the only edition on CD from this fabulous album; El Toro has the vinyl one. It's without doubt their best work since they started in 1996. It's their own unique sound: what they call "Authentic 50's Punk". They started out as an Authentic Rockabilly Band and after several years searching for their own personal style, they finally came up with this brand new record. From Ska to Surf, From Punk to 50's Rock'n'roll, from Rockabilly to ballad, the band has all the songwriting and instrumental skills they need to really put the Nu Niles experience across. |

Recommended record of the week 3rd of September 2006 DANNY AMIS CON LOST ACAPULCO - DADDY O GRANDE EN MÉXICO Danny Amis, aka Daddy-O Grande, travelled to Mexico City in May of 2006 and reunited with old friends "Lost Acapulco" to record these 13 rockin' instrumental tracks. Seizing the opportunity to employ other local talent as well, a mariachi horn section was hired. When they didn't show up for the session, they were replaced by a local ska horn section (who incidentally wear clown suits). A latin percussionist was also brought in to fill out the sound, making this Daddy-O Grande's proudest and most unique project to date. Imported Mexico |

Recommended record of the week 1st ofJuly 2006 FR1956 – FIREBALL STEVEN – ROCKABILLY DONE RIGHT The new Fireball Steven project fully lives up to the expectations. Raw, unpolished and authentic roots rockabilly. Primal rock experts Ace Brown and The Helldivers do a splendid job adding to the authentic feel of this album. These are recordings Fireball Steven did from 2000 till 2004 on several locations, ranging from Wild Hare's New Hope Studio in the USA to a session in his own living room. There's even a unique recording from Nic Nilsson when he was a fourteen year old lad, belching out his first ever self penned rocker, taped with a cassette recorder. Nice to hear how his voice has improved over the years. These tracks are added as bonus tracks and are introduced by Nic himself. There's a tip-top selection of guest musicians contributing to make this a CD that deserves a top drawer spot in your rockabilly collection: Roc Larue, (yes, the one and only), forementioned Ace Brown and The HellDivers, The charming Rockin' Irene with her bullfiddle, Wild Hare's own Dave Moore and The Saddle Palls to name a few. Of course there's also Nic's own band, The Hale Bops! |

Recommended record of the week 2nd March 2006 Artist: Mr. Whiz Album: This Is Mr. Whiz Style: Rockabilly With this CD, Mr.
Whiz introduces to the world their unique brand of a style that they have
proudly named hillbilly swing. This term --already used in the late 1940s
by western swing bandleader Curley Williams-- refers in this case to a
one-of-a-kind blend of rockabilly, hillbilly, and western swing that has
become Mr. Whiz's trademark. Their music is a perfect mixture of their
varied influences -- the rockabilly side of Carl Perkins, the honky tonk
style of Hank Williams, the colourful western swing of Bob Wills, the
finger-pickin' of Merle Travis, and even the nonchalant, jazzy swing of
Fats Waller are but a few examples. |

Recommended record of the week 3rd February 2006 Artist: VARIOUS ARTISTS - REAL COOL CATS - Album: TEXAS ROCKABILLY 1955 8 page booklet with liner notes by Dave Penny. "T for Texas - T for Tennessee" sang Jimmie Rodgers in 1928, setting the seal on two of the most important states involved in the growth of Country music in the years thereafter. By extension, the development of country rock 'n' roll - rockabilly - in the early and mid 1950s was strongest in those areas, but Memphis-based Sun Records blazed brightly early in the game, casting the exciting Cat Music of the Lone Star State in a deep shadow... 1 Sonny Fisher - I Can't Lose 2 Johnny Carroll - You Two-Timed Me One Time Too Often 3 Bob Luman - That's All Right 4 Jimmy Heap - Sebbin' Come Elebbin' 5 Dean Beard - Sing, Sing, Sing 6 Link Davis - Grasshopper 7 Johnny Carroll - Hearts Of Stone 8 Sid King & The Five Strings - Sag, Drag & Fall 9 Sonny Fisher - Rockin' Daddy 10 Mac Curtis - What'll I Do 11 Johnny Carroll - Sexy Ways 12 Bob Luman - You Were The Cause Of It All 13 Sonny Fisher - Rockin' & A-Rollin' 14 Charlie Brown - Have You Heard The Gossip 15 Ben Hall - Move Mama 16 Dean Beard - Time Is Hangin' Heavey On My Hands 17 Jimmy Lee & Wayne Walker - Love Me 18 Bob Luman - Hello Baby 19 Sonny Fisher - Hold Me Baby 20 Frank Starr - Dig Them Squeaky Shoes 21 Johnny Carroll - Stingy Thing 22 Sid King & The Five Strings - Purr, Kitty, Purr 23 Bob Luman - Stranger Than Fiction 24 Sonny Fisher - Sneaky Pete 25 Johnny Carroll - Cut Out 26 Charlie Brown - Don't Put The Blame On Me 27 Sonny Fisher - Hey Mama 28 Jimmy Heap - Go Ahead On 29 Johnny Carroll - Why Cry 30 Frank Starr - The Dirty Bird Song 31 Johnny Carroll - Crazy Little Mama 32 Bob Luman - In The Deep Dark Jungle 33 Jimmy Lee & Wayne Walker - Love Me (alternative take) 34 Sonny Fisher - Rockin' Daddy (alternative take) 35 Sonny Burns - A Real Cool Cat |

Recommended record of the week 2nd February 2006 Artist: Ellis & The Angry Teens Album: Bad Rockabilly Music Label: Goofin’ Records Style: Teddy Boy Track listing: Bad Rockabilly Music ~ Chances Are ~ Hey Gina ~ Opportunity ~ Move Over Tiger ~ Scratchin' ~ Still Wild ~ My Buddy's Baby ~ Teenage Special ~ Doncha Come A-Knockin' ~ Alcohol Man ~ I'm Tired Of Bummin' Around ~ Doin' It ~ Let Me In. Ellis & The Angry Teens are Finland's Teddy Boy band, with quite a few albums to their credit. In the 70s and 80s, Finland was one of the biggest suppliers of fantastic rockabilly bands in Europe, and for a whole new generation of Teds and Rockers in Scandinavia, this was their 'orginal' music, with bands like Teddy & The Tigers and the Boppin' Pete Trio. This one comes in ultra de-luxe package nicer than a digipack. "This new album is a well produced combination of original music and covers that have not been redone too much over the years, with a 'no-nonsense, keep-it-simple' attitude. Great pleasure! Well done guys." The Black Cat |

Format: CD Artist: Mississippi Queen Title: Did You Say Love Style: Rockabilly Price: 13,00 € Mississippi Queen is a drum less trio from Croatia that delivers an excellent album, and every song has been taken care of with lots of passion, enthusiasm, and rock & roll by the band. All this commitment and plain hard labour results into this sparkling CD. It's one of those platters that you throw in the player, puff a smoke, drink a beer and enjoy the ride. The self penned tracks have been well-matured and they grab you straight away. The cover songs underwent a nice treatment and received a great work over. Johnny Burnette's "Cincinatti Fireball" is a hard to cover song, but I just have to love this version. |

That long-deleted LP contained various studio out-takes, false starts and dialogue. They are all on this CD reissue along with an additional thirteen previously unissued tracks. The additional tracks were recorded by Gene Vincent at the Capitol Tower in Hollywood and Abbey Road Studios in London and showcase the variety of styles he was capable of handling during the period 1958-1961. These tracks were supervised by the legendary producers Ken Nelson (USA) and Norrie Paramor (UK). The recordings highlight Gene's versatility, performing anything from rock'n' roll standards such as 'Maybelline' and 'Rip it up' to ballads like 'You are the one for me' and 'Where have you been all my life'. 'Spaceship to Mars' was featured by Gene Vincent in the UK movie 'It's Trad, Dad', released in 1962. |
