"ROCK*A*BILLY COWBOYS" CD 7

This glorious 10-CD box set contains 250 original Rockabilly recordings featuring Johnny Cash, Carl Phillips, Johnny Horton, Marty Robbins, Tennessee Ernie Ford, Hank Thompson, Faron Young, Bill Haley & The Saddlemen and many others. All the tracks were recorded between 1947 and 1960 but with the vast majority coming from the 1950's.O yeah – sure the Country and Western stars could rock!!! If the cowboys were a bit more reserved than the  “real” rockers, listening to this compilation will still get you warmed up. The C&W music of the early 1950s deeply influenced Rock ’n’ Roll (and the Rockabilly scene as well). But from the mid-1950s C&W singers were admittedly kept moving more by the Rock and Rollers.
