His stuff isn't easy to come by as I found when I looked for some more recent compilations. This is superbly recorded and mastered by Ace Records albeit at only 128k but it still sounds pretty impressive.<br /><br />I can hear echos of big band drumming in Sandy's work and he's ably assisted by such studio luminaries as Richie Podolar and Plas Johnson amongst others. No hits like Teen Beat on this but everyone's got those anyway, just more interesting and obscure stuff you caint find anywhere else folks.<br /><br /><a href="http://rapidshare.com/files/239542843/Sndy_Nlsn_Dnce_Bt_Ace.rar">Link</a><br /><br /></div>RonMhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07892961237356720386noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7400495454064344428.post-52307134906901068572009-05-23T18:51:00.000-07:002009-05-23T20:32:12.025-07:00Jack Scott - Rockin' Scott<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pkv51AYRgCM/ShiofhZ17fI/AAAAAAAABMw/CzkILgTm6yE/s1600-h/cover.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pkv51AYRgCM/ShiofhZ17fI/AAAAAAAABMw/CzkILgTm6yE/s400/cover.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5339202617743896050" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">You could get Jack's 5 CD Bear Family box set but that has lots of ballads and Gospel songs. I've trawled through the set and extracted the cream of his rockin' sides 40 tracks of pure gold.<br /><br />The canuck rocker is renowned as a rock-a-billy star but to my ears he's more a country balladeer and if I may say so a slightly off key one. His rock sides are way better not really rock-a-billy more country rock but the more up tempo the better he sounds.<br /><br />His later tracks for mine are his better work and he got more rockin the more into the sixties he got. My favourite track is no 27 where he takes Dylan's Rainy Day Women and turns it into a fine country rocker.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Tracks</span><br /><br />01.

Of course Elvis is the king of the early days and I've collected the complete 50s, 60s and 70s masters.<br /><br />Funnily enough I think he hit his peak, certainly from a rock point of view, in the early to mid sixties with tracks like Little Egypt, His Latest Flame and Viva Las Vegas etc. The 50s of course were the classic years for his rockin' songs although the religious songs and sappy ballads don't do it for me.<br /><br />The 70s were, well the era of fat Elvis and warbly over done ballads and lugubrious rock songs although there were some gems amongst the dross.<br /><br />Anyway another Elvis comp is not much fun so here's some obscure Elvis imitators, artists from the same era who did the same songs as Elvis and even some more modern attempts at the Presley ouvre.<br /><br />My choice for best Elvis imitator is Vince Everitt. there's only one album of 15 songs available but its smashingly good, its the great Elvis album he didn't do. Ral Donner is pretty good also although he didn't do many Elvis songs so his albums are like new Elvis albums. He enjoyed some success in the early 60s but not a good career choice for longivity.<br /><br />The best 70s fat Elvis imitator is masked singer Orion, he of the favourite strange record cover for Orion Reborn where he actually looks more like Roy Orbison in disguise than Elvis. He did some records for Sun Records in the late 70s and they are pretty good if some songs are marred by cheesy synth effects.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pkv51AYRgCM/ShJS038-q_I/AAAAAAAABL4/148iOJEaozk/s1600-h/Cover6.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 384px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pkv51AYRgCM/ShJS038-q_I/AAAAAAAABL4/148iOJEaozk/s400/Cover6.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5337419576713849842" border="0" /></a><br /><br />His manager also produced some records with Orion doing duets with the likes of Jerry Lee Lewis by overdubbing their old records. It does sound remarkably like Elvis and I think his name was left off the record labels to create the impression that it was really Elvis.<br /><br />Worth seeking the masked one out as his records are worth a listen and his bizarre life ended when he was shot by a robber in his pawn shop in the late 90s.<br /><br />Best Elvis song not done by Elvis is Terry Stafford's Suspicion which at one stage in the early 60s was the only record in the top 5 not done by the Beatles. He also did not have a long career and ended up dying early.<br /><br />Best more recent Elvis imitator is a Belfast postal worker called "The King" and he's surprisingly good performing more recent songs which may be how they would have sounded if Elvis had survived and sung them.<br /><br />Oh and not to forget the ladies, best rock n roll female artist Wanda Jackson, who else?<br /><br />Anyhow here it is and well worth a listen, would I steer you wrong?<br /><br /><a href="http://rapidshare.com/files/234653197/rememberin_elvis.rar">link</a><br /><br /></div>RonMhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07892961237356720386noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7400495454064344428.post-50618884016879701022009-05-08T05:59:00.001-07:002009-05-10T22:58:24.054-07:00Brian Setzer Orchestra - Ultimate Collection Live<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pkv51AYRgCM/SgQs7jprWlI/AAAAAAAABEM/cCu93H1uQPg/s1600-h/cover1.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pkv51AYRgCM/SgQs7jprWlI/AAAAAAAABEM/cCu93H1uQPg/s400/cover1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5333437260407462482" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pkv51AYRgCM/SgQwdlC9JAI/AAAAAAAABEk/sAmPKX3f8a0/s1600-h/inner1.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 397px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pkv51AYRgCM/SgQwdlC9JAI/AAAAAAAABEk/sAmPKX3f8a0/s400/inner1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5333441143432356866" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pkv51AYRgCM/SgQwdh408SI/AAAAAAAABEc/UAnwhSLklW0/s1600-h/inner2.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pkv51AYRgCM/SgQwdh408SI/AAAAAAAABEc/UAnwhSLklW0/s400/inner2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5333441142584570146" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pkv51AYRgCM/SgQs73n07_I/AAAAAAAABEU/ZW846ZVZv1M/s1600-h/cover2.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pkv51AYRgCM/SgQs73n07_I/AAAAAAAABEU/ZW846ZVZv1M/s400/cover2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5333437265768411122" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">A wonderfully recorded live album by Brian Setzer and his Orchestra of two concerts. Lots of lounge, surf and straight out rock here. Who knew Brian was such a great arranger for his not tiny orchestra.<br /><br /><blockquote>Review by Thom Jurek AMG<br /><br />Say what you want about Brian Setzer and his cool retro-swing, but the man can not only play the hell out of a guitar, he can lead a big band like a pro, singing and playing sure, but he can write charts too. This set is rather ingenious. It contains two discs chock-full of the tunes that the Brian Setzer Orchestra has become (in)famous for.<br /><br />Disc one is a show from the band's first tour, and disc two is live in Japan after all the hoopla and success in 2003. There are no overdubs or edits of any kind on either set. One gets both the raw and refined here, popping through the years. The first disc includes 15 goners, including "James Bond Theme," "Brand New Cadillac," "Good Rockin' Daddy," "That Mellow Saxophone," "Ghost Radio," "Route 66," "Rumble in Brighton," and "Rock This Town."<br /><br />The way Setzer's guitar screams here is the sound fans were dying to hear on the studio records. Disc two has swaggering background vocalists and slicker arrangements, but there's no dearth of pure finger-poppin' rock here either. There's "Mystery Rain," "Hawaii Five-O," "Jump, Jive an' Wail," "Stray Cat Strut," "Caravan," "Gene & Eddie," "Sleepwalk," and a slew more. In all, this is a deeply satisfying collection capable of covering the "best-of" needs and giving punters who haven't experienced Setzer an opportunity to hear the excitement jumping out of the grooves his band cuts. </blockquote><br /></div>Link <a href="http://rapidshare.com/files/225400037/B_Stzr_Ultim_Cllctn.part1.rar">Part 1</a> <a href="http://rapidshare.com/files/225425353/B_Stzr_Ultim_Cllctn.part2.rar">Part 2</a> <a href="http://rapidshare.com/files/225444960/B_Stzr_Ultim_Cllctn.part3.rar">Part 3</a>RonMhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07892961237356720386noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7400495454064344428.post-19755707700149795472009-04-15T16:47:00.000-07:002009-04-15T17:07:10.528-07:00The W & G Story - Australian instrumental rock<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pkv51AYRgCM/SeZye079o3I/AAAAAAAABB4/9iyZSJB2uPI/s1600-h/cover1.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pkv51AYRgCM/SeZye079o3I/AAAAAAAABB4/9iyZSJB2uPI/s400/cover1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5325069483343979378" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pkv51AYRgCM/SeZye9i7sWI/AAAAAAAABBw/yybQpy68djc/s1600-h/cover2.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 312px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pkv51AYRgCM/SeZye9i7sWI/AAAAAAAABBw/yybQpy68djc/s400/cover2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5325069485654913378" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Here's some very rare Australian instrumental rarities. W & G was a quaint little record label active in the 50s and 60s and showcasing Aussie artists particularly country and western and Hawaiian. It operated under the Astor umbrella which in turn was an offshoot of Pye an English company well known for the work of Tony Hatch.<br /><br />Anyway the main interest in this collection is a nice number of tunes by the Thunderbirds an Aussie outfit that turned the Rockin' Rebel's Wild Weekend into a huge hit on the early 60's Aussie charts.

The top of the heap with numerous hits were the Atlantics and Bombora was the crown jewel.<br /><br />Next and also with a few hits were the Denvermen an experienced instrumental group and like the Atlantics they ditched their vocalist and for a little while ruled the roost. I've always liked the Denvermen named after the initials of the birthplaces of the members not an American affectation.<br /><br />Like the Atlantics they were heavily influenced by the Shadows but they didn't have the racing drums and the guitar stabs more a Duane Eddy twangy guitar sound. Their "Bombora" was Lets Go Surfside but this was a laid back moody piece that conjured images of lonely surfers looking into the horizon for the eternal wave.<br /><br />Anyway I think it was DaBoss who asked for some Australian surf music so here's the first album I could find, a comprehensive look at a very good oz instro group.<br /><br /><a href="http://rapidshare.com/files/219947919/denvermen-lets_go_surfside.rar">Surfside</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.milesago.com/Artists/denvermen.html">Here's</a> more info about the band than you really need.<br /></div>sandmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02648723381418868574noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7400495454064344428.post-3847042162416283342009-04-10T15:58:00.000-07:002009-04-10T16:38:07.229-07:00Surfin Knots 6<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_gAQvSBZ2xDo/Sd_Pqt1iK6I/AAAAAAAAAH4/VXNRc0Szin4/s1600-h/cover1.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_gAQvSBZ2xDo/Sd_Pqt1iK6I/AAAAAAAAAH4/VXNRc0Szin4/s400/cover1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5323201617340804002" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_gAQvSBZ2xDo/Sd_PqRUxFWI/AAAAAAAAAHw/8C5W_FOS70s/s1600-h/cover2.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 399px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_gAQvSBZ2xDo/Sd_PqRUxFWI/AAAAAAAAAHw/8C5W_FOS70s/s400/cover2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5323201609687176546" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Dedicated to Trustar, DaBoss, RYP, Xtabay and anyone else I've forgotten here's a belated new instalment of Surfin Knots.

He worked as rhythm guitarist on many of <b>Duane Eddy</b>'s biggest hits. It was the big guitar style he developed that Duane adopted. He also worked with <b>Jody Reynolds</b>, whose guitar instros were similar to Eddy's. His work with Duane was via producer/writer <b>Lee Hazelwood</b>, who also contracted him for this, his first solo album. Al was almost totally unfamiliar with surf when he agreed to do this album. There are some rough spots that demonstrate that, and a few numbers that are really outside the envelope if you subtract the reverb on his guitar. Sundazed has captured a couple of alternate takes, probably nineties remixes from session multi-tracks [3 or 4 tracks at best]. If you get past the <b>Blossoms</b> aka the <b>K-C-Ettes</b> ghastly vocalizing and the blues numbers, there are some real gems here. This is also the first time in stereo from the master tapes. The Stacy CD is from vinyl, or at least it sure sounds like it.

Well started something anyway. An unholy hybrid of electronica and instrumental music from the fevered imagination of legendary surf legend Sandy Groper himself. After a day surfing the beaches of France with the fearless members of the Surf Club de France rumoured to be the children of former resistance fighters and imbibing too much Swan Bitter and Absinthe (they were the legal ones anyway) Sandy came up with this concoction.<br /></div><br /><a href="http://rapidshare.com/files/42983709/The_Alien_Planet.zip">The Alien Planet</a><br />================<br /><br />01.

Thanks to the original uploader who's identity I've forgotten.<br /><br /><a href="http://lix.in/93c82e">Endless Summer</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div>sandmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02648723381418868574noreply@blogger.com4
