Link Wray - White Lightning - Lost Cadence Sessions 1958
The kids of 1958 loved ’em, and their first single for Cadence Records shot up the charts like a label owner’s dream. This is the fantastic and fiery album that was supposed to have been released as a follow-up to one of the all-time great instrumental classics, the ultra-menacing “Rumble.” But faster than you can say “Drag Race,” everyone—Cadence label-owner Archie Bleyer included—was talking about this new threat to the morals of American youth.

That’s why Link and his boys were off the imprint, and this album of prime distorto-guitar-crunch cool remained unreleased for nearly 50 years. Well here it is, and it’s every bit as dirty and dangerous as you would expect!

Little Anthony & The Imperials - Tears On My Pillow 2CD
Tears On My Pillow and All Their Greatest Recordings - Singles As & Bs Plus Two Complete Original Albums 1956-1961
Little Anthony & The Imperials were one of the greatest Doo Wop groups of all time.

This package features their two original '50s LPs plus the majority of their single and EP releases, including, the original version of 'Tears on My Pillow', which was a No. 1 hit for Kylie Minogue in 1990.

Still performing today, and one of the few groups to enjoy success into the '70s, Little Anthony & The Imperials are definitely worth a listen and fully detailed liner notes covering their entire career top this set off nicely.

Little Richard - Here's Little Richard
It's impossible to over-emphasise the impact Little Richard and the music on his first two albums for Specialty Records from March 1957 and July 1958 had on the future sound of R&B, rock and soul. “Here's Little Richard” and “Little Richard Volume 2” have just about every classic Little Richard side on them. This is the music that influenced and paved the way for the hundreds of beat groups of the 60's, and coupled with the larger-than-life anarchic, excessive and erratic personality of Little Richard himself, is the bedrock spirit of everything that followed in rock’n’roll, its sound, its image and its energy. Just count the tracks from these albums that got cover versions: The Beatles, Elvis, Otis, Stones, Springsteen and innumerable others recorded and performed these songs for years and years to come. Otis Redding and James Brown, arguably the two biggest male soul stars the world ever saw, both wore their Richard influence as a medal of honour and Michael Jackson and Prince have long been acknowledged as the carriers of Richard's flaming, otherworldly and showmanistic torch.

This is Rock’n’Roll in it's purest form. The raw musical power contained here has, quite simply never been surpassed, they still compel you to shout and dance and put into their original context of the 1950s they are nothing less than astonishing, because as much as Elvis shook up the world, ultimately he was able to be white, safe and accessible. Not so with Little Richard who remained and remains a free spirit, an enigma and a unique being.

Those first two albums are a hard, verging on impossible, act to follow. “Little Richard Volume 2” and the third album, “The Fabulous Little Richard” were both released after Richard had left Specialty in late 1957 and temporarily retired from recording rock’n’roll for the first time. Whereas all but one of the tracks on Volume 2 (‘By The Light Of The Silvery Moon’) had been issued on US 45 before, “The Fabulous” released in 1959, was put together from early recordings that didn't make the first two albums, some of which were recorded before ‘Tutti Frutti’, and recordings that, up until that point had been unheard by the world at large, taken from Richard's last 1950s Specialty session. Some of the earlier recordings were overdubbed with vocals from the Stewart Sisters, perhaps in an attempt to update them in the wake of ex Specialty artist Sam Cooke's pop success, and these overdub versions have come in for some criticism in the past. To be fair, the girl voices are not always entirely welcome. But if you can retune your ears after the full on assault from the first two LP's, “The Fabulous” will reap rewards.

This, really is where it all began.

Little Richard - The Fabulous Little Richard LP+CD
180 gram high quality LP featuring a free bonus CD of the album.

By the time this album was finally released in 1959, Little Richard had been out of show business for over a year, having since returned to the church and gospel music.

In fact, his first gospel album came out soon after the release of The Fabulous Little Richard.

Recorded in 1958 for Specialty, this album is a series of outtakes and studio tracks, many of which feature the backing vocals of The Stewart Sisters, which apparently were added at Little Richard's request in an attempt to give the album a more gospel feel.

Lord Luther - I Am The Lord
The town of Salinas is located two hours south of San Francisco in Monterey Country, an area colloquially known as America’s Salad Bowl, thanks to its rich soil. In the 1950s, the region was also the fertile fiefdom of “Lord Luther” McDaniels, a unique personage who rose from leader of respected vocal group the 4 Deuces to assume the mantle of Bay Area rock royalty. Luther started at the top with ‘W-P-L-J’, but true to his self-effacing demeanour, the man was never hung up on the what-ifs of becoming a record star, and for most of his fifteen years as an entertainer, remained resolutely focused on just that: entertainment.

If Lord Luther was one of the scenes most colourful characters in the 50s and early 60s, he was also amongst its most colourblind, boasting integrated bands and audiences that blended white, black and Hispanic into a happy, thrilled throng. As the writer and lead singer on the Deuces’ bluesy vocal group classic ‘W-P-L-J’, Luther was already known on the local chitlin’ circuit, but it was as a solo artist with a rabble rousing, tremendously exciting stage show that the Lord came into his “comfort zone”. Promoting his own revues on the Monterey Peninsula, Luther was an unpretentious rock’n’roll pioneer, one that many local musicians still reminisce about fondly.

Lord Luther’s vintage catalogue covers a decade’s worth of singles, that stretch from the doo wop of the Deuces to his own unique blend of R&B and rock’n’roll, on highly regarded records like ‘Teenage Creature’, ‘A Thinkin’ Man’s Girl’, ‘Just One More Chance’ and ‘Tremble’. All of these and a host of unissued vintage sides are featured on “I Am The Lord!”, covering the artists collectable recordings for the Music City, Frantic and Gedinsons labels between 1955 and 1964. It’s a crude and crazy rockin’ pot-pourri that is a must for fans of black rock’n’roll. Most importantly, this is the first time his legendary ‘W-P-L-J’ has been officially reissued, with the master tape sound quality that vocal group aficionados have hitherto only been able to dream about.

With continued interest in the Deuces, the Lord has recently returned to the stage, wowing audiences at East Coast doo wop/oldies shows, most of whom know little of the legend of Luther the entertainer, beyond ‘W-P-L-J’. Produced with the singer’s full co-operation with an extensively annotated and illustrated booklet, “I Am The Lord!” thus pays tribute to this fascinating artist, whose vintage recordings capture some of the pioneering excitement of rock’n’roll’s greatest era.

Note: Luther’s $500 Northern rarity ‘My Mistake’ will be featured on an upcoming Kent Records collection, and further sides by the 4 Deuces are slated for Ace’s Music City vocal group series.

Los Straitjackets - (That '70s Single) Surf #49 / Rainy Night In Georgia
Los Straitjackets are the world's leading practitioners of the guitar instrumental. Taking their cue from the style of The Ventures, The Shadows, Dick Dale and Link Wray, the band has pushed the style into the 21st century with their memorable live performances, albums and TV appearances, all the while clad in their trademark Lucha Libre masks. On this vinyl release, Los Straitjackets cover two iconic songs from the Me Decade. On Side A they take The James Gang's funky riff rock to Surfsville, and Side B is a soulful Duane Eddy-styled version of the Tony Joe White song (as made famous by Brook Benton).

Louis Prima with Sam Butera & Keely Smith - Jump, Jive An' Wail
DigiPac (4-plated) with 36-page booklet, 30 tracksPlaying time approx. 87 minutes. - David Lee Roth copied the Louis Prima arrangement of 'Just A Gigolo/I Ain't Got Nobody' while Brian Setzer won a Grammy for his version of 'Jump, Jive An' Wail'. The amazing originals are here. Also contains Prima's big hits with the succulent Keely Smith: 'That Old Black Magic' and 'I've Got You Under My Skin' are the epitome of Las Vegas cool. Plus a clutch of lethal tenor-man Sam Butera's rock 'n' roll vocals including 'Ten Little Women' and the full kilter 'Bim Bam'. All told, there's no better collection of Louis Prima's seriously frantic fusion of rock 'n' roll, Dixieland and Neopolitan mayhem. Fans will also appreciate the generous number of tracks and the booklet's numerous photos. --Louis Prima can't be pigeon-holed. Jump blues, vaudeville, Dixieland jazz, Sicilian boogie, swing and flat-out rock 'n' roll; they were all reflected in the riotous lounge act which he pioneered if not invented. Despite his age (born 1910) and a recording career which spanned four decades, Prima understood rock 'n' roll. 'It's got that beat' he said. 'There's nothing, but nothing, wrong with rock 'n' roll'. -- This collection doesn't overlook his jazz-inflected pop hits with Keely Smith but it relies primarily on his very best recordings for Capitol, those which capture the exalted frenzy of his live show and the rumbustious spirit of '50s rock 'n' roll. It includes his own full-steam ahead classic, 'Jump, Jive An' Wail', several innovative medleys and a clutch of attractive rockers by his accompanists, tenor sax player Sam Butera and his band, the Witnesses. Spurned by critics at the time, this anthology of ground-breaking, house-rocking music restores Louis Prima to his rightful, well-deserved place in the reissue spotlight.

Louvin Brothers - Handpicked Songs 1955-1962
Simply put, Alabama natives Ira and Charlie Louvin are country music pioneers, Baptist blood brothers known for their trademark close harmony vocal style, mandolin magic, and emotive material ranging from spiritual standards, well-crafted covers to influential originals. The Louvin Brothers’ holy, honest, and soul affirming sound—recorded on a series of formative releases on the Decca label in the early 1940’s—tapped deep into the pair’s rural religious upbringing in a strictly gospel fashion. By the time they signed with Capitol Records in 1952, they were tried and tested road warriors and found themselves branching out into more secular content and delivery. In 1955, the duo was accepted as performers into Nashville country institution the Grand Ole Opry, cementing their reputation as the best in the business.

But there was also a dark underside to the chart-topping hit maker’s righteous exterior. Older brother Ira, a foot taller than the diminutive yet no less formidable Charlie, had developed a serious drinking problem. Amplified by a feisty temper and a series of failed marriages, his wild child nature became more of a liability than asset to the show business pair. In 1963, Charlie had enough, and with self-preservation in mind, quit the Louvin Brothers. Though both soldiered on as solo acts, Ira succumbed to his fiery demons in 1965 and lost his life in a horrific drunk driving accident (ironically, the fault of the driver of the other car). Pushing ahead as a much loved and respected country music ambassador and proud gatekeeper of the Louvin’s legacy until his passing in early 2011, we are still grieving Charlie’s departure. Light In The Attic Records is honored to help share this American institution with fans young and old through a series of archival re-releases.

A star studded curatorial compilation, Handpicked Songs 1955-1962 (LITA 074, LP) is a shot of Louvin Brothers magic. This LP features 14 tracks performed by the Louvin Brothers during their golden era, each personally selected by the likes of Beck, Emmylou Harris, Will Oldham, Kris Kristofferson, Jim James, Dolly Parton and many more, all housed in a deluxe Stoughton gatefold sleeve plus a full color insert with period archival photos, and extensive liner notes along with meticulously re-mastered audio from the original tapes. Morning, noon or night, let the Louvin Brothers take you to a simpler time, when good old country music ruled the airwaves.

Luke Simmons - Pure Down Home Raw 1950s Country Singin' & Pickin'
Pure', 'Down Home' and 'Raw' are three words that aptly describe the driving rhythms and no-holds-barred sounds of fiddle and steel packed into the 30 tracks from the Canadian country artist, Luke Simmons. Combining influences of Hank Williams, Jimmy Rodgers and the country and rockabilly greats of his day in the early 1950s, yes siree this is without doubt as pure, raw and down home as you can get!

Many of the tracks are on CD for the first time, previously just available on scarce 78s and heard only by the most ardent of collectors - now all beautifully remastered.

Turn back the pages of time and listen to the authentic vocals of this great country singer who was a key link in developing the '50s country style even in places as far-fetched as New Zealand and Australia. Yee Haw!

Mac Curtis - Songs I Wish I Wrote
Mac Curtis recorded this album in Finland in fall 2010. Release date is April 15th. Pre-orders are welcome.


Bluelight Records will release a CD by the Texas rockabilly legend Mac Curtis in
April 2011.

Mac Curtis, born in Fort Worth in 1939, began his career in the mid 1950’s with a
sequence of singles that later became top rockabilly classics, such as “Grandaddy’s
Rockin’”, “If I Had Me A Woman” and “You Ain’t Treatin’ Me Right”. Later in the
1960’s he started a career as a radio DJ and became a respected and nationally known
figure in the country music industry. In the next decade he joined the rockabilly
revival circuit and created a steady stream of releases on the legendary Rollin’
Rock label, and he has been performing in rockabilly concerts in the USA, Europe and
Japan ever since.

Although best known for his 1950’s rockabilly recordings – the frenziest of the era
– cutting a country album is nothing new for Mac. In the late 1960’s his stint on
Epic and GRT labels produced two excellent country LP’s, “Sunshine Man” and “Early
In The Morning”, plus a string of charting singles. When Bluelight Records proposed
the new country album, he stated only half-jokingly “Actually I’ve been thinking
about cutting a hillbilly album”. Not quite hillbilly, but rather a set of what you
can call 1960’s uptown country is what the new album turned out to be.

The album, titled “Songs I Wish I Wrote” by the artist, is a compilation of
carefully selected and arranged covers and fresh interpretations of some of Mac
Curtis’ own recordings. The covers include treats like “Beautiful Annabel Lee” and
“Singer Of Sad Songs” from the Waylon Jennings songbook, Bob Dylan’s “One More
Time”, “Restless” by Carl Perkins, “This Time Tomorrow” by Sonny Curtis, and “So
What Let It Rain” by Lefty Frizzell, and of the old Mac Curtis repertoire we’ll hear
“Sunshine Man”, “100 Pounds Of Honey”, and “Turn Away From Me”.

The album was cut in Finland with an innovative team of musicians. The same crew has
been in charge for the two latest and highly acclaimed albums by another veteran
rocker Hayden Thompson. The recording location, an old cowhouse converted into a
top-of-the-line studio on an operational farm, is surely an ideal setting for
recording a classy country album with a dash of hillbilly flavor.
