On these 40CDs there are 1000 carefully chosen songs. A booklet is also included with information, biographies and many rare illustrations. It was neither easy to bring together all these gems from an earlier era but it was certainly worth it. The immortalisation of every one of the titles in this ”Hall of Fame” is justified. The majority of musicians and songs that can be heard here will be known to only a few of the ‘initiated’. But few rockabilly discs managed the leap into the American hit parade. The songs were often just recorded and pressed onto acetate to give pleasure to friends and relations, and so the distribution of these rare but ‘fiendishly’ well-made titles was correspondingly small. Frequently extra labels were set up just to publish one song in the hope of making the great breakthrough. A few were rewarded with a lasting success but many others were doomed to remain nineday wonders even though their songs were real hits. It is these discs that are traded at sales and in the internet at sometimes horrendous prices. A large number of these rarities will be found in this box.
