Hillbilly Bop, Boogie and the Honky Tonk Blues, Vol. 1: 1948-1950 [ORIGINAL RECORDINGS REMASTERED] 2CD SET
Continuing our very successful country series, here is our first 2CD set. 48 rompin stompin examples of hillbilly boogie, bop, and the honky tonk blues from 1948 to 1950. The kind of music that Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Elvis Presley were listening to in their formative years. Dim lights, thick smoke, and loud loud music - hillbilly music with a beat. Bobby Bland (the blues/soul singer) once said "I think hillbilly music has more of a story than people give it credit for". This set includes a booklet with informative liner notes by Al Turner. Re-mastering & digital processing by Tall Order Mastering.
