Various Artists • Mercury Rockabilly Volume 1 CD

Mercury Records may not be the first label that springs to mind when discussing Rockabilly, but its catalogue tells a different story. As Rock 'n' Roll swept across America during the 1950s, Mercury recorded an extraordinary mix of Country singers, Rockabilly hopefuls and future stars, leaving behind a wealth of exciting recordings. Mercury Rockabilly Volume 1 gathers thirty-one of the best, many of them still overlooked today.

The line-up is packed with talent, featuring George Jones, Conway Twitty, Eddie Bond, Thomas Wayne, Curtis Gordon, Sleepy LaBeef, Narvel Felts, Roy Moss and Ben Hewitt. From the driving energy of Rockin' Daddy and Double Talk Baby to the infectious Blue Moon Baby and Rock-a-Bye Baby Rock, the collection captures the many different directions Rockabilly took during its golden years.

One of the joys of Mercury Rockabilly Volume 1 is hearing just how broad the label's approach was. Mercury wasn't looking for thirty-one copies of the same record. It encouraged artists with Country, Honky Tonk and Blues backgrounds to embrace Rock 'n' Roll in their own way, making this a compilation that's constantly changing gear while never losing its momentum.

Beautifully presented on CD, Mercury Rockabilly Volume 1 is essential listening for Rockabilly collectors and anyone keen to explore the rich catalogue of one of America's great record labels.
