B.B. King - Makin' Love Is Good For You
He's known as the King Of The Blues, and is really the last of the great bluesmen the ones with the connection to the roots of the music. A man with a career spanning over 60 years. He is BBKing, a giant and a legend, now in his mid-80s, but still active, being revered and admired by all. King has never just been able to relax and live on his considerable reputation. Even in the 21st Century he's been making good music, as the album here proves.

The follow-up to the big selling Riding With The King (a collaborative effort with Eric Clapton, this was released the sameyear, 2000), Makin' Love Is Good For You is a mix of covers and new material, nicely balanced by a sound that not only carries the great man's trademark, but also proves he was very comfortable in a modern studio environment.

Using his touring band, who by then had been with him for a decade, King revisits some old friends (such as 'Peace Of Mind' and 'You're On Top', records new songs such as 'Action Speaks Louder Than Words' and 'She's My Baby'. He also provides his own approach to songs written by Tony Joe White (the title track), Willie Dixon ('Don't Go No Farther') and Barbra George ('I Know').

Big Sandy And His Fly-Rite Boys - Jumping From 6 to 6 / Dedicated To You 2CD
BIG SANDY and his FLY RITE BOYS present a sound that takes their rockabilly roots and encompasses folk, bluegrass, Western swing, and Cajun.

‘Jumping From 6 to 6’ was originally released in 1994, produced by the main man from THE BLASTERS DAVE ALVIN, this album was described as a recording that opened the flood gates for others seeking to bring Western Swing back to prominence.

‘Dedicated to You’ was BIG SANDY’S solo debut which heralds a major shift away from the retro Western Swing work with the FLY RITE BOYS. The album celebrates the classic L.A low rider sound featuring 15 Doo Wop and RnB covers that were originally recorded between 1954 and 1961.
Recorded with legendary pianist DEWEY TERRY, one half of the 50’s Rock n’ Roll duo DON and DEWEY.

Caravans - Return To Zero - Acoustic & Unhinged
There can't be many bands that are equally at home playing to both a Rockabilly and a Psychobilly crowd, yet the Caravans find themselves in that enviable position. Led by multi-talented Mark Penington, the band has been touring and recording for over 20 years. For much of this time they have been a headline act, and despite line-up changes and near fatal accidents, they are still going strong.

Subtitled "Acoustic And Unhinged", "Return To Zero" sees The Caravans perform some of their best known songs, some new material, and some surprise covers entirely on acoustic instruments. A totally excellent and totally rockin' outing for one of the Psychobilly scene's favourite bands.

Francine - The Story Of Francine - Trouble Edition
Lahtelaisen rokkibändin Francinen vauhti ei ole parinkymmenen vuoden aikana hyytynyt! Tällä hetkellä Francinen uusi Trouble-ep soi kolmella radiokanavalla, kuuma keikkabussi kiitää ympäri Suomea ja kesän festarit odottavat! Fanikansan kasvettua räjähdysmäisesti bändi päätti palkita porukkaa julkaisemalla päivitetyn
version loppuunmyydystä kokoelmasta The Story Of Francine, joka julkaistiin muutama vuosi sitten.

Nyt kokoelmaa on päivitetty viidellä uudella biisillä: mm. radiohitti "Trouble" sekä edellisen One Step Further -pitkäsoiton hitit "I Don't Give a Damn" ja "Never Grow Up". Vastaavasti levyltä on poistettu viisi vanhaa biisiä. Aiemmassa versiossa mukana oli myös dvd, jota päivitetystä versiosta ei löydy.

Janis Martin - The Blanco Sessions
Janis Martin was one of the few female recording artists working in the male-dominated rockabilly field in the 1950s. Nicknamed “the female Elvis” for her dance moves, the Sutherland, Va. native, born in 1940, recorded a number of singles for RCA Victor and Pallette from 1956 to ’61. Her first single, “Will You Willyum” b/w “Drugstore Rock ’n’ Roll,” sold more than 750,000 copies, landing her national TV appearances. In 1960, her first husband demanded she leave music. But she returned in the ’70s, and in 1995 made a guest appearance on Rosie Flores’ "Rockabilly Filly" album.

It’s here that the saga of Janis Martin’s farewell album, "The Blanco Sessions", began. The Blanco Sessions, produced by Flores and Bobby Trimble, will be released on Cow Island Music on September 18, 2012.

In 2006, Flores left Los Angeles to return to Austin and found Trimble, an old friend from Big Sandy’s Fly-Rite Boys, living there too. Trimble found a stellar and amazing team of Austin musicians to back Martin up including Dave Biller (guitar), Beau Sample (bass), T-Jarod Bonta (piano) and Trimble on drum. Kelly Willis also sings a beautiful duet with Janis. And in April 2007, the whole band, Janis, and her husband Wayne, drove from Austin to Blanco, Texas where the sessions took place. They cut eleven songs in only two days.

Martin left the Blanco Sessions feeling that she had accomplished something really great, as she told Flores in a phone call that brought tears of joy to Flores’ eyes. But just a few weeks later, Flores received another call from her with the shocking news that she had been diagnosed with stage-four lung cancer. Martin passed away just four months later.

Janis Martin died leaving behind an enormous legacy and thousands of dedicated rockabilly fans who still mourn her passing. Since that sad day in 2007, her name has been praised with awards and accolades. In 2008 she was inducted as an outstanding woman into the Danville Museum of Fine Arts & History in her hometown of Danville, Virginia. In 2010, she was recognized by the Library of Virginia at its Virginia Women in History Celebration. She was also featured in the Beth Harrington-directed documentary Welcome to the Club — The Women of Rockabilly that was broadcast on PBS.

Flores says “I thank the great Janis Martin up in rock ’n’ roll heaven for inspiring me to do this. I thank you for giving me the chance to help with your final recordings. I will see you again someday, and we’ll work on the next batch of songs! These final recordings are for all of those listeners out there who love your voice, your spirit, your heart, and your rock ’n’ roll soul.”

Jorma Kääriäinen - Kajaanista Memphisiin - Sooloura 1978 - 2010 2CD
Koko kansan suursuosikin mittavan soolouran kattava tupla-CD "Kajaanista Memphisiin - sooloura 1978 - 2010" julkaistaan 3. marraskuuta.
Mukana on uusi versio kappaleesta "Mä elän vieläkin", -sekä ennenjulkaisematonta materiaalia.
Ammatikseen yli 30 vuotta laulaneen megatähden Jorma Kääriäinen mittava sooloura niputetaan juhlavasti yhteen marraskuun 3. päivä julkaistavalla kokoelmalevyllä "Memphisistä Kajaaniin - Sooloura 1978 - 2010".
Jorma Kääriäinen esiintyy syksyn mittaan lukuisissa konserteissa Riku Niemi Orchestran kanssa. Hedelmällisen yhteistyön antia nähtiin äskettäin myös Ylen TV2:lla televisioidussa Valkea ruusu -konsertissa.
Kokoelmalevyn ensimmäinen single on uusi versio Jimmy Webbin säveltämästä ja aikaisemmin Pate Mustajärven, Topi Sorsakosken, Harri Marstion ja Jorman esittämästä kappaleesta "Mä elän vieläkin".
Kappaleen englanninkielisen "The Highwayman" -version esitti Johnny Cashin, Waylon Jenningsin, Willie Nelsonin ja Kris Kristoffersonin muodostama superkokoonpano The Highwaymen.
Uusi versio on taltioitu Jorman ja RNO:n yllämainitusta konsertista.
Jorma Kääriäinen on laulanut jo yli 40 vuotta ja siitä ammatikseen yli 30 vuotta. Pitkän ja hienon uran salaisuudet ovat olleet aito innostus, vahva tahto ja jäljittelemätön tyyli.
Jorma Kääriäisestä on pitkän uransa aikana tullut yksi rakastetuimpia ja tunnetuimpia suomalaisen rock-iskelmän tulkitsijoita, jonka valtava suosio on vain jatkanut nousuaan vuodesta toiseen. Tiiviisti keikkaileva ja tuottelias muusikko on hurmannut suomalaisia niin tanssilavoilla kuin Helsingin legendaarisella Tavastia-klubilla

Rock Ola - Beautiful Rough – Best Of
Olan uusi kokoelma CD missä mukana myös muutama julkaisematon biisi. Onnea Rock-Ola 50v !!

Suomen rock-kuninkaita on valittu jo 50-luvun lopulta lähtien ja onpa joku saattanut
julistaa itsensä kuninkaaksi ilman valintaakin. Rock-Ola ei aatelista titteliä ole
tarvinnut, vaikka lukuisten ihailijoittensa mielestä kuuluukin kuninkaiden joukkoon.
Rock-Ola on antanut musiikkinsa puhua puolestaan ja jättänyt kilpailut niille jotka
eivät omin avuin pärjää.

Olli "Ola" Pihlajanmaa sai rokkikeuhkokuumeen monien ikäistensä tavoin 70-luvun
lopun teinivuosinaan. Tauti osoittautui vaaralliseksi ja pysyväksi, muttei sentään
tappavaksi. Jälkiseurauksena Olalle jäi legendaarisen levyautomaatin mukaan tullut
taiteilijanimi Rock-Ola ja mikä parasta, ääni joka nosti hänet rock'n'roll-laulajien
maailmanluokkaan.

Kuten niin monen muunkin, myös Rock-Olan ensimmäinen idoli oli rock-kuninkaitten
kuningas Elvis Presley. Elviksen vaikutusta on hänen laulussaan mahdotonta olla
huomaamatta, vaikkakaan mihinkään imitointiin Ola on viisaasti osannut olla
sortumatta. Maailmassa on ollut vain yksi Elvis, mutta ei ole toista Rock-Olaakaan.
Näin on myös Olan toisen suuren vaikuttajan, jazzlaulajatar Billie Holidayn
kohdalla. Holidayn vaikutus tuo Olan tulkintoihin sellaista herkkyyttä, jota
harvemmin rock'n'rollin laulajilla kuullaan.

Soittajanuransa Ola aloitti rumpalina, mikä kuuluu edelleen hänen laulunsa
oivaltavassa rytmityksessä. Maanlaajuiseen maineeseen Ola sai kosketusta
suosikkiyhtye Johnny And The New Dodgersissa, mutta kun Suomen suosituimman
rockabilly-yhtyeen Teddy And The Tigersin johtaja Teddy Guitar pyysi häntä
rumpaliksi uuteen Lonestars-ryhmäänsä, alkoi Ola saada ansaitsemaansa huomiota myös
solistina. Tässä rockabillyn superbändiksi ylistetyssä kokoonpanossa olivat
tasavertaisina laulajina niin Teddy Guitar, Buck Jones kuin Rock-Olakin. Kuten niin
usein all-stars -tyyppiset kokoonpanot, jäi Lonestarskin lyhytikäiseksi. Sama ryhmä
jatkoi vielä toisen albumin verran uudella nimellä The Falcons, mutta sen tultua
tiensä päähän, Ola oli valmis lähtemään omille teilleen.

Rock-Olan sooloura oli saamassa kansainvälistä nostetta. Ruotsissa riitti keikkoja
eri säestysryhmien kanssa lähes joka viikonlopuksi, mutta vieläkin parempaa oli
luvassa. Vuonna -81 Ola äänitti englantilaisen, vankkaa suosiota rockabillypiireissä
nauttineen The Blue Catsin kanssa ensimmäisen oman albuminsa. Lopputulos oli
huippuluokkaa, mutta kohtalo painoi peukalonsa alaspäin. Levy-yhtiö Rebel ehti
kaatua ennen levyn ilmestymistä ja maailmanvalloitus jäi haaveeksi. Vasta vuonna '96
- viitisentoista vuotta levyn äänitysten jälkeen Jungle Records julkaisi kappaleet
CD:llä Slap That Bass.

Vaikka Rock-Ola tunnettiin mestarillisena laulajana ja uskolliset ihailijat pysyivät
yleisössä, jäi levytysten määrä yllättävän vähäiseksi. Vähäiselle määrälle toi toki
positiivista vastapainoa niiden korkea laatu. Seitsemäntuumaisia vinyylilevyjä
ilmestyi eri yhtiöiden kautta parin vuoden välein ja Ola jatkoi yhteistyötä mm.
Bippin' Pete Trion, Lost Soulsin ja Butterfingersin kanssa. Vuonna -90 Rock-Ola teki
uuden aluevaltauksen liittyessään instrumentaaliyhtyeenä tunnetun The Charadesin
laulusolistiksi. Perinteisestä rock'n'rollista siirryttiin reippaasti melodisempaan
rockiin, mikä jäi pysyvästi kuulumaan Olan tulkinnoissa jatkossakin.

Sooloura sai uutta puhtia lopulta vuonna -96, kun Bluelight Records julkaisi albumin
Yesterday Is Gone. Se toi esiin Rock-Olan entistäkin monipuolisempana tulkitsijana,
mutta valitettavasti levyllä soittanut kokoonpano jäi jälleen lyhytikäiseksi. Kun
Ola sai vihdoinkin kasaan uuden yhtyeensä Rock-Ola And The Freewheelers, nousi se
oitis suomalaisen rock'n'rollin kärkikaartiin. Bändin nimissä julkaistu Upskirt oli
uuden vuosituhannen alussa sekä kaupallinen että arvostelumenestys. Komeasti sujui
bänditoiminta jatkossakin, sillä vuonna 2004 julkaistu konserttitaltiointi Live On
The Rocks oli vahva näyttö ryhmän keikkakunnosta.

Vaikka Rock-Ola ei ole kaupallisessa mielessä saavuttanut ansaitsemaansa menestystä,
intohimoiset musiikin ystävät tiedostavat hänen arvonsa. Kun Ola esittää
rakastamaansa musiikkia, hän ei pelkästään laula. Hän antaa palan sisintään, osan
sielustaan ja sydämestään. Sitä kuulija ei voi olla vaistoamatta ja se nostaa
Rock-Olan illasta toiseen tulkitsijoiden kuningasluokkaan.

Rosie Flores & The Pine Valley Cosmonauts - Girl Of The Century
With over half a century of hard roots-rabbling between them, Rosie Flores—the Rockabilly Filly, and Jon Langford—head Mekon, Waco Brother and conductor of the Chicago-based collective the Pine Valley Cosmonauts, blast a sonic contrail stretching from Texas to Wales, from the dusty hill country to the dusky fetter cairns. These two long-celebrated musical forces, one with her cowboy boots firmly in the dance halls and the other with his work boots sloshing around puddles of beer in the pubs, come together for Girl of the Century, an album of spirited and soulful romps through the back roads of American music.

Recorded live-in-the-studio hot with the Cosmos tackling their task at the knees, Girl of the Century crackles with effusive energy. Anchored by the crack rhythm section
of Tom Ray (Neko Case, Devil in a Woodpile) on bass and Joe Camarillo (Waco Brothers, Dollar Store) on drums, the Cosmos find a groove and lock it in, be it the suave blues of “Chauffeur,” the Bob Wills smooth swing of “Little Bells” or the wild rockabilly of “This Little Girls Gone Rockin’.” Throughout, Pat Brennan’s stone-cold honky-tonk piano and John Rice’s count-in fiddle keep the boots firmly on the rail.

Rosie’s front and center vocals have never sounded better. From her saucy growls to kittenish sass to clarion Ronnie Spector smarts, there’s a versatility here she’s only hinted at on previous albums. Smooth, cheek to cheek balladry like “Last Song” and “Dark Enough,” a torch number so swampy it’s easy to imagine her draped over a mossy piano, sashay against a more playful and powerful side when she gets her pop rocks off Maggie May-ish blue-eyed soul style on the Langford penned “Halfway Home” or the Little Sisterera Elvis rocker “This Cat’s in the Doghouse” co-written by Patricia Vonne. For a little slice of heaven from the Conway and Loretta playbook, look no further than the old school duet with Langford “Whose Gonna Take Your Garbage Out?”
It’s all Texas twang and blustery, rolling rrrr’s.

Given that this is a Rosie Flores album, though, one expects guitar heroics. With Langford’s chunky punk roots, John Rice’s clean lines and Rosie’s off the charts vivacity and dexterity, Girl of the Century delivers with a handful of spades. There’s revved up runs straight outta Sun Records on “This Little Girls Gone Rockin’,” the exaggerated wah wah on” I Ain’t Got You,” and urgent straight up rock and roll in “You’re the One.” Check out the jolt she provides on the oft-covered Johnny Cash’s “Get Rhythm.”

This album is a gas, friends. We're ever so happy to bring these two super cool artists together.

Roy Young - The Best Of 50 Years 2CD
One of rock'n' roll's greatest entertainers celebrating his half century as a professional musician has put together this 2 CD set of tracks spanning that entire period of rock 'n' roll, blues and soul described by one critic as "a mixture between Little Richard, Ray Charles and Joe Cocker".
Roy auditioned back in 1959 for Jack Good and performed on the now legendary BBC TV Show "Oh Boy!" Other TV Shows followed and Roy found himself opening for The BEATLES in Hamburg and subsequently spent 4 years playing on the Reeperbahn. Brian Epstein asked Roy to return to London with The Beatles as he could arrange a recording contract for him-Roy declined as he was committed to his performances in Germany.

After returning to the UK Roy joined CLIFF BENNETT & The REBEL ROUSERS and performed on their hits. He released solo albums "The Roy Young Band" in 1971 and "Mr Funky" in 1972 and tracks from those albums are included on this 2CD set.

In 1977 DAVID BOWIE asked Roy to play keyboards on his album "Low" which they recorded in Paris.

After many years of living in the USA Roy returned to UK in 2000 and returned to live performances including Beatles Festival in Berlin and Star Club, Hamburg 40th anniversary.

A new solo album was released in 2002 "Still Young" with tracks written by DENNIS MORGAN one of the most successful songwriters in the world. (from Angel Air website)

Sonny Burgess And The Legendary Pacers - Gijon Stomp
Sonny Burgess is one of the wildest rockers to record for the legendary Sun label in Memphis. He and his band the Pacers came out of Newport, Arkansas, with a hard-rocking style that, unlike that of most rockabillies, owed little to nothing in the way of a stylistic debt to country music.

With his red-dyed hair, matching stage suit and guitar, and wild stage performances, Burgess and the Pacers made mincemeat of the competition on many of the early-'50s rock & roll package tours. Though his Sun releases never brought him much in the way of commercial success, his recordings nonetheless remain landmarks of the early rockabilly style.

Southwest Skiffle Boys - Skiffle With Soutwest Style
Southwest Skiffle Boys on nelimiehinen orkesteri, jonka musiikissa yhdistyvät niin skiffle-, kantri- kuin rokkabillymusiikkikin.

Starline Rhythm Boys - Masquerade For Heartache
Voted 2008 Group of the Year by Freeform American Roots DJ's around the world, the
Starline Rhythm Boys are at it again. Masquerade For Heartache is the follow-up
to the Boys' monumental live recording, Live at Charlie-O's World Famous. Ten more
killer live tracks. Includes a mix of originals and covers with Danny Coane and
Big Al Lemery sharing the vocal duties and Billy Bratcher driving it all home on
stand-up bass. Several tracks also include the steel guitar stylings of guest,
Kevin Maul.
This recording demonstrates, once again, that the Starline Rhythm Boys can hold
their own with anyone in delivering a scorching live performance. Honky Tonk,
Rockabilly
and straight up Country is what they do and they deliver it with a passion and honesty
that is surely missing in today's country music scene.
Bill Kirchen's liner notes from Live at Charlie-O's World Famous certainly apply
to this release as well "...it's all right here; the tear jerkers, the crowd workers,
tales of the new fools on the old stools..."

Produced by longtime Starline collaborator, Sean Mencher.

Sweet Jeena and Her Sweethearts - Rock´n´Roll Picnic
SWEET JEENA AND HER SWEETHEARTS

Release their first album ”Rock'n'Roll Picnic” on Playground Music Finland.

Sweet Jeena And her Sweethearts shake and serve a groovy cocktail of Americana: old time rock'n'roll, rhythm'n'blues, rockabilly and country, with a tasty slice of jazz and truckloads of grazeology.

It's a vibrant mix of influences that often lead to futile imitation of forgotten times. But in this case the result is light and fresh, with a little twist to the left. In Jeena the Sweethearts have a fiery singer. She sounds new and vintage at the same time. Hillbillies of the twenties don't know what they missed - and helped to create.

The Sweethearts kicked off in 2007 with 40's and 50's style rockabilly and country. Looking for a guitar player for a fifties party Jeena came across Risto at a blues jam. There two lifetime freaks hit it off right away and never looked back.

With Jeena's sweet vocals and Risto's edgy guitar their sound started to grow from the roots towards new horizons. They started to play with new toys - jazz, blues, anything that sounded fun. Wild fairies took sips of the modern times. Rural romanticism met passionate urban rhythms.

Then on everything rolled like a river flows. Tumppi and Heikki used to play and record with The Stringbeans, a rockabilly band with psycho leanings. Jeena and Risto found the new rhythm section laying around, just waiting for a righteous rock'n'roll ride.

Together this foursome brings early rock'n'roll, blues, country and black and white crime fiction to the CD era. It's romantic as hell. But nostalgic? No way!

They've been doing their thing two or three years, depending on whose opinion you listen to. The word has gotten around. When you hear them, you won't wonder why. We are dealing with time-proven badass rock'n'roll with enough raw energy to drive an old carpet to the other side of the moon. Hearing is believing. Check them out asap!

JEENA RANCKEN - she's got the voice
The sweet thing that sings, scats, yodels and hums
and can sound like a V8 engine roaring on the main street at midnight.
Jeena takes unexpected turns a normal earthling wouldn't dream of.
She whispers, moans and howls.

RISTO KLEMOLA - a man of many guitars
His instruments behave like rockin' and rollin' juvenile delinquents.
On some occasions they have brought the booze sales to an all time high.
Risto also streches his pipes on some backing vocals.

HEIKKI KOIVUNEN - takes care of the low frequences
There he reigns and flies like a jailbird just escaped from prison.
He slaps the swinging rhythm of his heart out of his double bass.
Heikki teams up with Risto for backing vocals, serenading sweetly or barking like a choir of pitbulls.

TUMPPI HUUHTANEN - has got the beat
His drumming is so insistent he can liven up any party at six on a sunday morning.
Shaking maracas and hitting whatever in reach with his sticks he makes your moving parts do the shimmy.
And there you go!
