Various - That'll Flat Git It: Vol.56 - That'll Flat Git It! Rockabilly & Rock 'n' Roll From The Vaults Of Fortune, Hi-Q and Strate 8 Records (CD)

1-CD (Digipak) with a 36-page booklet, 28 tracks - total playing time approx. 65 min.

Fortune isn’t just the name of a Detroit label that has become legendary. Fortune was THE label in Motown City, long before Detroit gave rise to the record company Motown Records. Between the late 1940s and the mid-1960s, great music was made and even greater records were produced at the small Fortune Studio, covering the country, rockabilly, rock ’n’ roll, and R&B markets of the time.

This second installment of the Fortune Records Label Story also features raw, down-to-earth rockabilly and intense rock ’n’ roll, the kind that could only have been created in the small Fortune Studio. The classic Dig Everybody, Dig That Boogie by the legendary Roy Hall kicks things off right away!

Fortune had produced a number of legendary artists, such as Eddie Stapleton, Johnny Powers, Pete DeBree, Roy Hall, and Andre “Bacon Fat” Williams. Although the latter was primarily at home in the rhythm ’n’ blues genre, he, too, couldn’t resist recording fierce rock ’n’ roll until the studio walls shook.

A significant portion of the Fortune recordings - including those on the sub-labels Hi-Q and Strate 8 - were recorded with an in-house band, featuring a rotating lineup of musicians, in the small in-house studio attached to a record store.

Like its predecessor, BCD17787 ‚That’ll Flat Git It! Vol. 55,‘ this compilation is not nostalgia - it is a powerful document of a time when music was direct, loud and unapologetically real. It rocks from start to finish - and that’s exactly what made Fortune, Hi-Q and Strate 8 legendary.

The CD includes a high-quality, 36-page, full-color booklet featuring numerous rare photos, illustrations, and a comprehensive history of the label, expertly written by Chicago music icon Bill Dahl.

• Here’s the second installment of the Fortune Records label story in Bear Family Records®’ legendary rockabilly CD series!

• From the melting pot of Detroit, Michigan - and long before the world had even heard of Motown Records!

• In addition to Roy Hall, Fortune and its subsidiaries have produced a host of rockabilly legends, such as Johnny Powers and Pete DeBree!

• Alongside the well-known names, this CD features rockabilly tracks by a variety of obscure artists who are highly regarded among fans.

• Music icon Bill Dahl from Chicago has once again written a detailed and authoritative account of the label’s history.

• Carefully mastered from the best available sources, in keeping with the Bear Family Records® tradition.

• The extensively illustrated, full-color booklet features many photos and memorabilia!

That'll Flat Git It

CDs Album-Serie produziert von Bear Family Records

'That'll Flat Git It!' das war das verbale Erkennungszeichen des Memphis Disc Jockeys Dewey Phillip, der keinen geringeren als Elvis Presley erstmalig im Radio spielte... Und 'That'll Flat Git It' heisst unsere Bear Family Records Rockabilly CD-Album Serie! Wer kennt nicht die legendären Lanspielplatten wie die 'MGM Rockabillies', die 'Chess Rockabillies', die 'Rare Rockabilly' Zusammenstellungen der Firma MCA, oder die Columbia Zusammenstellungen. Alle Rockabillykracher, die auf diesen LPs enthalten waren, gibt es bei uns auf CD-Album plus mindestens doppelt so vieler weiterer Rockabilly Songs!

Einzigartige That'll Flat Git It! Rockabilly-Serie

Wir machten uns auf die Suche nach den am besten klingenden Bändern. Ließen sie dann von den führenden Mastering-Spezialisten bearbeiten und haben auch in puncto Verpackung neue Maßstäbe gesetzt. Als übergeordneten Serien-Titel wählten wir ' That'll Flat Git It!', das verbale Erkennungszeichen des ersten Rockabilly-Discjockeys Dewey Phillips.
Außerdem suchten wir unveröffentlichtes Fotomaterial und machten all jene Interpreten ausfindig, nach denen bis dahin vergeblich geforscht worden war.
Unterm Strich steht unsere einzigartige That'll Flat Git It! Serie
