  • Dont think Elvis came close to this kind of wild rock n roll in the 50s? Correct me if Im wrong!!

  • You're right, I consider Elvis to be more on the 'commercial' side of rock n roll...I'm not saying he was bad, it's just that everything he did was calculated. Guys like Joe Clay really lived the music :)

  • Compression is the same on my cd

  • @Rotis59 Yes, I've seen it. Of course Elvis was more the commercial side of rock 'n roll, nothing wrong with that (in 1955 or 1956) but he was certainly no Pat Boone or Bobby Vee !!

  • @RockabillyWilly1 > I think you're wrong here, Elvis came very close to this at his numerous live performances all over the USA in 1954 - 1956. You're right about recorded songs though, but that's mainly because of the great guitar of Mickey Baker. Scotty Moore hailed from a western outfit before he and Bill Black teamed up with Elvis, so that makes a huge difference in being wild as a recorded song.

  • @thetaildraggers Elvis and Joe appeared together on the Louisiana Hayride. There is a famous picture of them standing next to each other with all the other Hayride performners taken in 1955.

  • @profits62 Is the compression like this on the cd as well? By the way, I believe this is the 2nd vers on the cd.

  • compression sounds like a RealAudio track from 1996

  • I think that Elvis certainly came close this this wildness, it just was never documented en recorded. Live he was certainly this wild, I'm sure!

  • say rockabilly to the vast majority of music fans and they say"oh yeah elvis ,bill haley"

    yes they did play a part but so did many others .joe clay.hal harris,ronnie self,billy lee riley and on and on goes the list.without these artists the music would have died a very

    quick death.sun records and studio was not the only horse in the usa although it was important.sugarhill gold star is one that gets little recognition.great post anyway.

  • I've had this cd for some time now.Good stuff!
