Synopsis

Product Description
The 20th installment of Bear Familys acclaimed rockabilly anthology series features perhaps a mostly unknown label, Event Records. Most rockabilly came from the South, but Event Records was founded by Al Hawkes in 1956 in Maine, and many of the artists came from the chilly Northeast where the United States borders the Canadian maritimes. The great underground hero on Event was Curtis Johnson, who was actually from the South but was appearing up in Maine with a local country group. This 37 track CD features Curtis Johnson, Ricky Coyne, Scotty McKay, Javalins, Slim Martin, Herbie Lee III, Johnny Houston, Dick Curless, Four Dappers, Dreamers, Western Starlighters, Joe Taylor and others. Also contains a 52-page booklet.

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Another great Bear Family Rock-A-Billy album. I have all but about two off these albums and have only been disapionted in one of them. The liner notes are great, the pictures and stories behind the artists is like a musical history Lesson. This album has 37 songs on it and is well worth the extra money.
