Rockbilly Boogie (CD) – Johnny Burnette

For foaming-at-the-mouth rockabilly nothing will ever beat The Rock ‘n’ Roll Trio: Johnny Burnette (vocals, guitar), Dorsey Burnette (vocals, bass), and Paul Burlison (guitar). This collection of tracks, recorded during the trio’s brief career in 1956/57, contains some of the rawest, purest rockabilly ever recorded. None of the songs was a national hit. But Train Kept A Rollin’, Lonesome Train On A Lonesome Track, All By Myself, and the title track itself, every one is dynamite. Genre classics, reissued in their entirety in premium sound quality for the first time on this CD! ‘Rockabilly Boogie’ includes a 32-page booklet featuring photos, extensive liner notes by Colin Escott, and a discography. A few rare alternate takes and family photos round out the story. As raw, primitive and exciting as rockabilly ever got. Essential!
