Billy Strange
Guitar For Hire 2CD

An established recording artist in his own right, with a discography which stretched back to the early 1950s, Billy Strange was also a regarded singer with a distinctive baritone voice and a bona-fidé Rockabilly legend, an inductee into the Rockabilly Hall Of Fame.
This double disc collection traces Billy's story from his early Hillbilly and Honky-Tonk recordings, through to his emergence in the early '60s as an in-demand session musician.
Disc One gathers virtually all his singles released between 1952 and 1962.
Disc Two features his appearances as a sessionman, a killer 45rpm issued under a pseudonym, and a pair of almost unfeasibly rare and collectable albums in their entirety.
