"ROLLIN' ROCK GOT THE SOCK" Vol. 2

This is the second entry in the ongoing chronicle of Rockin' Ronnie Weiser's retro rockabilly label of the 1970s, and, as such, holds much in the way of raw listening pleasure for fans of straight-up 1950s rock & roll. Striking a nice balance between rare and unissued '50s tracks that Weiser licensed from other labels (Jimmy Patton's "Yah! I'm Movin'" and two 1955 winners from Bob Luman) with "newer" sides cut in the 1970s from the likes of Ezra Charles, the Magnetics, Ray Campi, Cort Murray and Chuck Higgins, these 20 tracks perfectly illustrate that the music was indeed alive and well during this period.(Cub Koda, Allmusic)

trax: 1. YAH! I'm Movin' - Jimmy Patton 2. Stranger Than Fiction - Bob Luman 3. Rock Around With Ollie Vee - The Magnetics 4. Blue Night - Colonel Jim Silvers 5. Hello Big Man - Sarah Harris 6. The Fat Man - Ezra Charles 7. Take Some Ludes And Get Funky - Johnny Legend & His Rockabilly Bastards 8. Hard Hearted Girl - Mac Curtis 9. The Way - Cort Murray 10. The Wild One - Ray Campi 11. The Girl I Left Behind - Jimmie Lee Maslon 12. She Rocks Me - Jackie Lee Cochran 13. I'm Hooked - Chuck Harris 14. The Last Time You Were Loved - Rip Masters 15. You Said You Wouldn't Get Drunk Patricia - Johnny Carroll 16. Julie - Colonel Jim Silvers 17. Waukeen - Tony Conn 18. A Lil' Bit Of This - Ezra Charles 19. You Were The Cause Of It All - Bob Luman 20. Tennessee & Texas - Ravenna & The Magnetics

Thanks for all the great chances to hear interesting music. Your blog has always been one of the absolute best on the whole net. And I say that as a 40 year veteran of the road- as a journeyman musician, who had the honor of playing with some of the absolute tops and best in the world. I guess I move on now, because so many blogs (when those pitiful losers at Mediafire shut good blogs out)move on to Rapidshare which is unfortunately probably the worst clouds on the net. Profit is all that counts with them - they don't want to bother paying for virus protection and every second download is carrying a virus, trojan, or spyware. And that is not idle talk - I know people who work for Rapidshare (in Switzerland where I now live) and they say security is a running joke with the owners. But thanks once again anyway for all the great recordings that everyone could check out in the past. All the BEST to you.
PS. Mediafire is acting childish in running scared...having connections throughout the music industry, I know that for 2012 - none of the remaining clean, open sites are in danger of being sued or seized - Zippyshare and Medaifire are two of the safest (from closure) in the world.

An old share, Funk Drops, caused the closin of my mediafire account. If anybody has any better ideas than Rapidshare, let me know. I personally have never had a problem with Rapidshare as a subscriber.

Rapidshare...the share ain't too rapid...been known to take HOURS since the downfall of Megaupload.

Gyro - ANY idea is better than Rapidshare. Even straightening things out with Mediafire is a better idea. Work from a different email address.

What was thge problem with Funk Drops?
