The Best Rockabilly I've Ever Heard

"When I first heard this disc playing in a local music store one day, I wondered where they had gotten such a clean sounding recording of Elvis in his early (pre-1957) days. But after finding out who it really was, buying it, and taking it home, I found this band to be much more than an Elvis cover band (even though Darren Spears' vocals do sound amazingly similar to the King's).These guys cover many of the great old rockabilly classics (e.g., "Blue Days Black Nights," "Just Because") with probably more flair than anyone ever has before (and with, of course, the added advantage of clearer modern recording technology). But they also play some of Spears' very own songs, which hold up very well in comparison to some of the classic standards.And whether you like rockabilly or not, I defy you to listen to this without tapping your foot."

Flawless rockabilly!

"there aren't enough good things in the world to say about go cat go. they are not very well known and that is a shame because they have got be the sweetest rockabilly i have ever heard. this cd is one of those few that i can put in, start at number one, and let play all the way to the end without skipping any tracks in between. every song is a gem and this cd is truly a treasure. unfortunately, go cat go's incredible singer, Darren "Lucky" Lee Spears, passed away in 1993. but we can honor his memory in keeping the music of go cat go alive."

"This CD is fantastic. It is authentic Rockabilly but "in stereo". What a Voice, he IS missed. The previous reviewers have said it all."
