It plays really loud and with high definition!

Sonny Burgess - We Wanna Boogie
Warren Smith - whatever the hell the one is on AVI
Johnny Burnette and the Rock and Roll Trio
Dale Hawkins - Suzie Q - the Best of Dale Hawkins
Hasil Adkins - Out to Hunch !!!
This last one is the one you really need, bh. One man rockabilly band insanity from the early 60s that's so demented it makes Roky Erickson look like Paul Anka.
Currently I am on this huge Charlie Rich kick. His double CD - Feel Like Goin' Home, will not leave my CD player. The white Ray Charles and that ain't no lie.

hey nastingo, been looking into adkins sicen he died a while back, mainly just reading up on him, heard OF him, but never actually heard him before, but it sounds like I need to scope'm out, I'll try to zero in on this "Out to Hunch" album, didn't he kinda inspire the Cramps ?
dude, the silver fox is the shit! "the white ray charles" I'm down with that, Rich knew how to do it right, love all the early stuff "lonely weekends", "rebound" "mohair sam" ect.. and all the later day schmoozy country shit like "beautiful girl" and my fav "rolling with the flow" ~ roll ~ on
Nellie, missed shooters set sun, was under the impression he was opening for the main act, but apparantly he opened for the opening act lol, by the time we got there he and his band had just finished and were hangin out at one of the bars, and being the diplomatic dude that I am, walked by, shook hands and mentioned something about "your album sounds great" LOL.....man he's a teeny, tiny little fella
currently in the cd changer:
Doug Sahm ~ Groovers Paradise
Link Wray ~ Best of
Sonny Burgess ~ We Wanna Boogie

See, now I knew you HAD to have Sonny Burgess, but he tops my list anyway, because he is the greatest of the "obscure" Sun artists - I just LOVE the way he uses that single trumpet w/the standard rockabilly line-up to unslick his sound even further. Also some of the best raw rhythm guitar until Keith. Link is of course the greatest guitarist of all time.
Hasil did indeed inspire the Cramps - they covered his "She Said" on the B-side to Goo Goo Muck and on Bad Music for Bad People - in order to try to get something of the West Virginia hillbilly in his vocal, Lux sang the song with a paper cup in his mouth so he could be properly inarticulate. He STILL isn't inarticulate enough.
OUT TO HUNCH is his 50s and early 60s recordings and while they're essential the sound quality can get pretty rough, since he was mainly recording them in his house. But they are so worth the effort. The best of the "modern" Hasil recordings is The Wild Man, recently expanded on CD by Norton. It's much less gunk-covered sonically than any of his early recordings and much more focused than most of his 90s recks. And it covers the whole scope of his repetoire, from Jimmy Rodgers to the Carter Family to Sam the Sham and the Pharoahs plus loads of loony originals. Not as brilliantly primal as Out to Hunch but one of the other two or three I actually bother to own.
That some assjack high on crystal meth should run the great man down on his own property whilst driving a four wheeler when the Haze was only feeding his dogs, thus ending the life of this one-of-a-kind on such a tragically appropriate random note of modern southern gothic idiocy is some kind of cosmic intervention its probably best not to contemplate too much in a public forum. We'll have to do it over liquor sometime.
I can't believe that I didn't tell you to track down a copy of SIN ALLEY VOL. 1 on CD - compiled by the same guy who redefined "garage" back in the 80s, the SIN ALLEY series is the most crazy, wild, stoopid rockabilly material available anywhere that's actually worth hearing - great songs about frogs, booze, aliens, sex, and womanstink. Yougottahearitdude.
Yesterday I was thriftin' and run into a copy of Charlie Rich's rare ass RCA Groove album AND his first SMASH album, the one with Mohair Sam and the epic Moonshine Minnie, both mint 'n' mono! I still lives on the side of the angels!
Currently: DESMOND DEKKER - reggae week on the couch, me breddas!

Prince - Chaos and Disorder
A contract filler in 1996 and rumour has it that he knocked this out over a long weekend. Due to this time constraint, Prince fell back on what he does best - playing guitar. In fact, it is probably Prince's most guitar heavy album. Not his best album songwise but still better than most of the stuff that was around at the time. Some of the tracks sound like a sort of 'Jimi and The Family Hendrix'. |

Lucinda's current live show contains FIVE brand new songs (apparently shes written 23 for her partly recorded next studio album)
The show from Stern Grove Festival in San Francisco a couple of weeks back is now on dimeadozen. New songs sound pretty good! |
