Howdy folks! Here we go with a new offering from my collection. Kingsport, Tennessee, 1954, and a fine rendition by fiddler L.C. Smith, RADIO BOOGIE. Yes it’s a crossover between Hillbilly Bop and Bluegrass. Much earlier (March 22, 1937) and the great Roy Acuff on STEEL GUITAR BLUES (Clem Slumley on dobro – slide effects). Then on to Texas, both tracks on the TNT label. Energic BICYCLE WRECK by the Jacoby Brothers, and the bluesy LOSING THE BLUES by Jerry Dove (Remember his « Pink Bow Tie »?). Back to Ohio for Lawson Rudd’s SHAKE THIS TOWN. We finish with the Black R&R DON’T HAPPEN NO MORE by Young Jessie (Mickey Baker on guitar) – frantic! (78 rpm). Enjoy the tracks. Comments welcome!

late April fortnight

ray batts WildManBoogieHello folks!

First we have two very sought-after rockabillies from Louisiana by RICK RICKELS (MH Label), « I’mGoe » and « _You Gonna Go Away ». Then the truck drivers’ favorite « Six Days on The Road » given a rocking treatment by PAUL DAVIS (B!ulletin label), nice strong steel-guitar. Further on, classic lap-steel guitar of Clem Slumley behind the vocal of ROY ACUFF for this 1936 offering, « Freight Train Blues ». Then on to gospel with the Soul Stirrers pre-Sam Cooke – lead is R. H. HARRIS in « Walk Around » (1939). Finally we return to Hillbilly boogie with RAY BATTS and his « Wild Man Boogie » (Nashboro, 1951) – fine trumpet which did inspire Sonny Burgess a couple of years later. Enjoy the music!
