CD Reviews

Eseential rockabilly & jump blues!
Paco Rivera | East LA area, CA | 02/20/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Every rockabilly fan needs both volumes in this series(each have 3 discs), which is incredibly low priced. There is seminal recordings here by the greatest rockabilly bands including Jerry Lee Lewis' wild boogie-woogie inspired piano pounding(think of Willie the Lion Smith, but drunk!), Carl Perkins smooth vocals, and early Johnny Cash. Popualr artists are mixed with obscure ones, but the entire collections makes for an continually intruiging listen. There is mostly reockabilly, with a fre R&B, jump blues numbers. They are all great for dancing the jitterbug. This 3 cd set as well as it's companion Voulume 2, needs to be owned by all serious swing dancers, rockabilly babes, and gents. So grease up that pompadour in a nice dome and put this cd on, invite all your Bettie Page look alike gal pals from East LA over and dance the night away."
Must Have For Any Collection!
Mel. C | North Carolina, United States | 02/05/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"No matter what genre of music you enjoy, this is a MUST for any collection. I was So happy to find this CD! This CD displays the amazing talents of Rock & Roll, Blues, and Country History. From Carl Perkins, Roy Orbison, Charlie Rich, and The Man In Black, Johnny Cash, to the more obscure, such as Howlin' Wolf, Mystery Train, and The Prisionaires, this CD is outstanding! It is a great CD, no matter your age, appreciate the roots of American Music!"
