Here we have a selection of mostly unknown, but fascinating artists that played their part in carrying on the Rockabilly music tradition that was very much ignited thru Sun records in Memphis. Virginia had their share of fine artists and musicians that in a lot of cases made no prosperous living on their music and in many cases only left behind one, or at the most, a couple of obscure 45´s now highly sought by collectors. This particular collection also has f.i. some rarer live tracks by Gene Vincent, who of course made it big on the music scene of the fifties. Though I did have a lot of these tracks on compilations and on some 45´s this collection added much by an interesting booklet with info and pics covering the music/artists. Of course, this set might be mostly appreciated among hardcore Rock a Billy buffs but also others who have an interest in grasping all the talent that thrived outside the charted music business will appreciate the set as it is well put together and enjoyable musically if you like original fifties roots music.
