George Jones
Heartbreak Hotel - Gonna Shake This Shack Tonight CD
35 track CD + 48-page booklet.
George Jones recorded many rockin' songs during his early career - lots of uptempo Country and also some pure Rockabilly.
This is the first anthology of George Jones' rocking side.
Featured here are many extremely rare recordings, along with early hits such as Why Baby Why and White Lightnin'.
Starday Records coerced Jones into recording several Rockabilly classics under the name of Thumper Jones, including Rock It and How Come It.
He also covered other artists' hits for Starday's Dixie EPs, including Heartbreak Hotel and Johnny Horton's One-Woman Man.
The wilder side of George Jones's life is well known; this collection assembles 35 of his most aggressive performances from Starday and Mercury Records.
