T for Texas - T for Tennessee ...met het well - received compilatie - album "Real Cool Cats " ('06) nam El Toro Records ons mee voor een (h)eerlijke terugblik in de geschiedenis van the Texas Rockabilly. Obscure Texas born rockabilly artiesten als Sonny Fischer, Johnny Carroll, Bob Luman, Charlie Brown slaagden erin om het anders zo rustige Texas in the mid - fifties te doen 'opschrikken' met hun country rock 'n' roll die al vlug geschiedenis ging schrijven onder de noemer rockabilly. Met de opvolger "Rollin the Rock" Texas Rockabilly Vol. II" gaat Carlos Diaz ( El Toro Records) een schitterend Lone Star Bop stapje verder en doet daarvoor beroep op ondermeer Johnny Carroll & His Hot Rocks, Ray Campi & The Snappers, Mac Curtis, Alvis Wayne en Sid King & The Five Strings....met andere woorden : the hottest Texas Rock 'n' Roll legends on this side of the Rio Grand die in the early seventies met hun roots of rollin' rock opgewaardeerd werden door a rock & roll - crazy Italian called rockin' Ronny Weiser en zijn Californian record compagny Rollin' Rock Records. De jonge veulens van toen zijn ondertussen "Rockin' Grandaddy's geworden die onder het motto van "Gonna Shake this Shack Tonight" anno 2009 nog steeds in vuur en vlam geraken voor "Corinne, Corinna", "Rock & Roll Ruby", " The Wild, Wild Women" en "Good Rockin' Babies"..... |
