Ronnie Self
Ain't I'm A Dog CD

When the greats of rockabilly are discussed, it’s never long before the name of Ronnie Self comes into the conversation.
A man who lived his life close to the edge, and whose recordings frequently sounded like he did, Ronnie Self never had a hit of his own and made no more than a handful of 45s during Rock ‘n’ Roll’s heyday - but virtually all of them are now considered to be genre classics.
Fully remastered from the finest available sources, and with informative booklet notes, this comprehensive collection of Ronnie Self’s greatest recordings will doubtless generate a fresh wave of admiration for these stellar sides.
Self passed away at a young age, before he was able to capitalise on the respect that his records brought him during the first Rockabilly Revival of the 1970s & early '80s, but his 1950s recordings are as popular with today’s new rockabilly recruits as they have been for many years.
Despite his self-destructive personal nature, Self was a committed professional songwriter whose best songs were frequently recorded by star names including Jerry Lee Lewis and Brenda Lee.
