BRIAN SETZER
Rockabilly Riot! Volume One
– A Tribute To Sun Records
[2021 Deluxe Reissue]
2LP – Limited Edition Red Vinyl
Out of print since 2005, this record sees Brian Setzer paying tribute to one of the greatest rockabilly labels ever, the one that arguably started it all: Sun Records.
“Why should I record a tribute to Sun Records? And at that, narrowing in on only their rockabilly years… a narrow time frame between roughly 1954 through early 1957. For that matter, what the heck is rockabilly anyway? Sure, all of us greaser, guitar slingin’ hep-cats know, but (for the most part) the general population has never even heard the word. Rockabilly, the musical bastard of rhythm and blues, hillbilly, country, gospel, and maybe even a little jazz sung by wild-eyed southern white boys with too much time and too little money just lookin’ for trouble. After doing much homework, I have selected 23 of what I consider Sun Records’ best recordings. Some I’m sure you know (at least I hope so) and some are very obscure gems.” – Brian Setzer
