Reviews for: CHARLIE FEATHERS
Review:
El Toro Records release a big bunch of original recordings at the moment. Bran new is this double Cd of Charlie Feathers. Since decades Charlie Feaths is rated as "King Of Rockabilly" by legions of fans, other ones just lifted him into the status of "God". Well, without doubt Charlie Feather was an is a monument in the world of Rockabilly.
With this El Toro release you get the essence (47 songs /outtakes / demos etc. incl. Miller Sisters stuff with feathers playin' spoons etc. etc. ) of all this releases packed on 2 CD's.
The main question is, if we need taht release which contain already released material. For sure, all teh collector and older cats & Kittens will have all this stuff in their vinyl collections, but specially for all the people who joined the scene in the last couple years and just buying CD's, thhis double pck is a great chance to get as much 50's Charlie Feathers as possible and an important part of Rockabilly history, just for a fistful of Euros. With an informative booklet and well done art work, it's a nice release
