Vol. 43: Rockabilly \/ Various [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eThat'll Flat Git It! Vol. 43: Rockabilly \u0026amp; Country Bop From The Vaults Of Allstar Records \/ The now 43rd installment in the popular rockabilly CD series with detailed label portraits on Bear Family Recordsr is dedicated to the Texas label Allstar Records. -On Allstar itself and it's two subsidiaries, Kool and Nu-Craft, great country and rockabilly recordings by well-known and rather obscure musicians have appeared. -A fascinating mix of country songs and hard-hitting rockabilly by musicians like Johnny Bush, Eddie Noack, Rocky Williams and Wiley Barkdull a.o. -In the extensive illustrated booklet, music historian Bill Dahl tells the story of the Houston-based label founded by Dan Mechura in detail, providing brief biographies and discographical details of each artist and recording. Dan Mechura's Houston-based Allstar Records had a different business plan from the lion's share of his country and rockabilly competitors. For a fee, Mechura and his cohorts would accept lyrics from amateur songwriters through the mail and fashion them into completed songs, recording the final product with a surprisingly impressive roster of singers and sidemen. By no means was everything Allstar and it's Kool and Nu-Craft subsidiary labels done that way, but a fair amount was - resulting in some intriguing listening. Bear Family takes an in-depth look at Allstar's obscure output on this edition of 'That'll Flat Git It!,' uncovering some splendid obscurities by surprisingly well-known names. Johnny Bush's first two singles came out on Allstar in 1958, and there are memorable entries by veteran country vocalists Link Davis, Eddie Noack, Lawton Williams, Earl Aycock, and Smilin' Jerry Jericho. Adrian Roland's Imitation Of Love beat the odds to become a national country hit in 1960, while Johnny Watson, Bobby Clanton and The Citations, Jerry Matthews, Tommy Graham, and Mechura himself (as Daniel James with Rock Moon Rock) supply tough rockabilly and Wiley Barkdull's insane guitar instrumental Tiger By The Tail rocks harder than anything coming out of Houston in 1964! 1-CD (Digipak) with 36-page booklet, 35 tracks. Total playing time approx. 79 minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJohnny Bush - In My World All Alone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJohnny Watson - Come To The Party\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLink Davis - Bon-Ta-Ru-La\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdrian Roland - Imitation Of Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJerry Jericho - When I'm Gone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKenny Everett ; The Texas Showboys - What Is It\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBobby Clanton ; The Citations - Beat Back Baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEarl Aycock - The Love That Thrills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarry Butler - Walked Out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdrian Roland - Mr. Bass Fiddle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaniel James - Rock Moon Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTommy Graham - I Love My Baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRed Mansel ; His Hillbilly Boys - Johnny On The Spot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWiley Barkdull - When You Go\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJohnny Huskey ; The King Bee's - Red Dress\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTommy Trent - A Mile To The Mailbox\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJerry Matthews - My Little Baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarry Butler - Foolish Affair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJohnny Bush - Your Kind Of Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRed Mansel - My Only One\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTommy Hammond ; The Rockin' Rebels - Let's Forget We Ever Met\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRay Mitcham - Out Yonder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBarney Vardeman - It's Never Too Late\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLawton Williams - Mama Doll\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaniel James - I'm Gonna Move\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRay Frushay - Hijackin'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmilin' Jerry Jericho - What Right Have I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTommy Trent - Just For Tonight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLink Davis - Ballad Of Jole Blon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrince Arky ; His Westerners - Ten Horned Devel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdrian Roland - Now I Know\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRocky Williams - Rock Cinderella\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEddie Noack - Too Hot To Handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWiley Barkdull - Tiger By The Tail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarry Butler - Echoes Fade And Die\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4000127176929\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bear Family\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.2.24\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rock Band Merch","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59580695674961,"sku":"557796","price":30.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/4284530-3086234.jpg?v=1780040326","url":"https:\/\/apocalypsevinyl.com\/es\/products\/thatll-flat-git-it-vol-43-rockabilly-various-thatll-flat-git-it-vol-43-rockabilly-various-cd","provider":"Apocalypse Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
