"ROCK*A*BILLY COWBOYS" CD 9

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.

One more time, and a bit more obscure this time. Thanks so much, guys.

BONUS:

SPIRIT -Twelve Dreams Of Dr. Sardonicus (1970) (Deluxe Expanded Version)

http://www55.zippyshare.com/v/28373483/file.html


Although Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus has the reputation of being Spirit's most far-out album, it actually contains the most disciplined songwriting and playing of the original lineup, cutting back on some of the drifting and offering some of their more melodic tunes. The lilting "Nature's Way" was the most endearing FM standard on the album, which also included some of Spirit's best songs in "Animal Zoo" and "Mr. Skin." [The 1996 CD reissue has four bonus tracks,: mono versions of "Animal Zoo" and "Morning Will Come," the 1970 single "Red Light Roll On," and the previously unissued "Rougher Road."]

You're right Iggy, Vol. 9 is a bit more obscure. It's a solid series!
