Go Cat Go!: Rockabilly Music and Its Makers
book by Craig Morrison

Go Cat Go!: Rockabilly Music and Its Makers is a comprehensive overview of rockabilly, beginning with its crystallization as a distinct style in 1954 with Elvis Presley's world-changing release of That's All Right.
Presenting the who, what, where, and when of the music, Craig Morrison's lively account sparks memories of Blue Suede Shoes, Be-Bop-A-Lula, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Buddy Holly.
Morrison traces how a genre with roots in country and country blues, R&B, and western swing became the sound that helped build rock 'n' roll, profiling not just rockabilly artists and recordings but the attitude and instrumentation that made the music a phenomenon.
