32 Original Historic Rockabilly Classics - Vol. 3





Another 32 killer slabs of rockabilly music. Amazingly there is no chaff on this series, every song is a winner. This volume gives me the warm fuzzies on account of the inclusion  of “Rock N’ Rolll Saddles”
 by Johnny Edwards with the Whitecaps. Which was reportedly the first rock n’ roll record to be recorded in Wisconsin, at a studio in Wausau where polka was predominantly recorded. This same studio would later crank out some decent garage records on the Big Sound label, such as “You Can’t Tame Me” by the Benders and “Same Old Grind” by the Spacemen. Anyway...
