Ferlin Husky: Gonna Shake This Shack Tonight - with Guests: Simon Crum & Terry Preston

1-CD Digipak (4-plated) with 72-page booklet, 32 tracks. Total playing time approx. 86 minutes.
  • From his years in Los Angeles in the 1950s recording as Terry Preston, to his time as an early pioneer of the Bakersfield Sound, to his extensive tours with Elvis Presley, to his alliance with Alan Freed,
  •  to his recordings as comic alter-ego Simon Crum, Ferlin's talent for rockin' and boppin' is on full display.
  • Explore a very different side of the smooth-voiced crooner whose 1957 recording of Gone helped usher in the pop-influenced Nashville Sound.
  • Packed with 32 tracks, including six charting hits, two previously unissued recordings, and rarities released on CD for the first time.
  • Beautifully illustrated booklet packed with many rare and never-seen photos.
  • Extensive liner notes by Scott B. Bomar, featuring in-depth biographical information and insights culled from unpublished interviews with Ferlin, Jim Ed Brown, Dallas Frazier, Jan Howard, Ken Nelson, Jean Shepard, Leona Williams, and many others!
Ferland Huskey was born in southeastern Missouri, and went on to be known by many names during his career: Ferlin Huskey, Tex Terry, Terry Preston, Ferlin Husky (without the 'e'), and Simon Crum, a comic alter-ego whom Ferlin demanded be treated as a separate person. The musical ground he traveled was as diverse as his various identities. Adept at smooth countrypolitan polish, rough-hewn backwoods toe-tappers, funny off-kilter novelties, earnest recitations, or rockabilly-infused boppers, one could pick virtually any theme and assemble a solid collection of Ferlin Husky material.

Starting in the Missouri honky tonks as Tex Terry, Ferlin relocated to California in late 1948, where he joined Big Jim DeNoon's band in Salinas. It was through DeNoon that he landed his first record deal on the 4 Star label. When he began touring with Gene Autry sidekick Smiley Burnette he changed his name to Terry Preston. He eventually moved over to Capitol Records around the same time he moved to Bakersfield. It was during his Bakersfield period that Ferlin began introducing Simon Crum to audiences on his daily radio show. In 1953 he began recording songs in the Hank Williams style which were issued under the name Ferlin Huskey. He had his first #1 hit later that year with the Jean Shepard duet A Dear John Letter. By 1954 he had permanently relocated to Nashville, where he became a member of the Grand Ole Opry. While smooth Nashville Sound hits such as Gone and The Wings Of A Dove came to define him, Ferlin's recorded output is incredibly diverse. He was just as likely to rock as he was to croon!

This compilation features 32 examples of Ferlin's ability to capture the verve of country bop, proto-rockabilly, and the rural strains that informed early rock and roll. He pulls it off, not because he's putting us on, but because this music is truly one of the many sides of the multi-talented Country Music Hall of Famer who was known as 'Mr. Showman.'

Ferlin Husky

Ferlin Husky war ein US-amerikanischer Country Superstar. Der am 3. Dezember 1925 im ländlichen Cantwell, im East Desloge-Areal in Missouri geborene Sänger (voller Name: Ferlin Eugene Husky) lernte, noch bevor er 10 Jahre alt wurde, das Gitarrenspiel von einem Onkel. Er interessierte sich für die Musik von Red Foley und Bing Crosby, jedoch kam der 2. Weltkrieg dazwischen und er erlebte das Grauen des D-Days 1944 als 19-jähriger Kanonier eines Truppentransporters vor der Küste bei Cherbourg, Normandie, Frankreich. Er begann nach dem Krieg seine Laufbahn zunächst als Discjockey in Bakersfield, Kalifornien. Western Star Smiley Burnette heuerte ihn für eine Tournee an, wenn er seinen Namen ändere. Er begann unter dem Pseudonym Terry Preston zu arbeiten, auf Tourneen ebenso, wie in lokalen Clubs in und um Bakersfield und wirkte auch als Bassist gelegentlich bei Aufnahme-Sessions und Club-Gigs anderer Künstler mit.

Ein erster Schallplattenvertrag wurde unterschrieben und es erschienen zwischen 1949 und 1951 insgesamt 11 Singles bei dem kleinen Plattenlabel Four Star, die sich jedoch nur lokal verkauften. 1951 wechselte er zur großen Firma Capitol Records, nachdem der Manager von Tennessee Ernie Ford auf Husky aufmerksam geworden war und diesen sofort an Capitol vermittelte. 1953, Ferlin Husky hatte bis dato bei Capitol 7 Singles noch unter dem Pseudonym Terry Preston veröffentlicht, erschien bei Capitol seine erste Single unter seinem richtigen Namen, 'Hank's Song'. Zeitgleich wurden bis Mitte 1954 bei Capitol Songs als Terry Preston herausgebracht. 'A Dear John Letter', ein Duett mit Jean Shepard brachte den Durchbruch. Es war Huskys erster Nummer 1 Hit in den Country Charts. Der Song beschreibt die Geschichte eines US Soldaten kurz nach dem Korea Krieg, der einen Brief seiner Geliebten erhält, in dem diese die Beziehung zu ihm beendet, da sie sich in seinen Bruder verliebt habe. Ein Thema, das in die Zeit passte. Der kurz darauf folgende Antwort-Song, 'Forgive Me, John' – auch ein Duett, wurde ebenso ein Top Ten Volltreffer. Als Solo-Künstler konnte Husky jedoch erst 1957 Furore machen. Sein Hit 'Gone' hielt sich unglaubliche 10 Wochen auf dem Spitzenplatz der Country Charts und landete auf Platz 4 der Pop Charts. 1960 konnte er diesen Erfolg mit 'Wings Of A Dove' wiederholen. Unter dem zweiten Pseudonym Simon Crum startete Husky Mitte der Fünfziger Jahre eine weitere Karriere. Als Comedian, als singender Komiker, war er fast ebenso erfolgreich. Höchste Chartposition als Simon Crum war der Song 'Country Music Is Here To Stay' im Oktober 1958, Platz 2 der Country Charts. Noch erfolgreicher waren seine Simon Crum Auftritte in abendlichen TV Shows, in denen er gerne populäre amerikanische Sänger und Sängerinnen (!) persiflierte.

Mit Beginn der 1960er Jahre begann auch die Karriere Ferlin Huskys abzuflauen. Er konnte sich zwar noch etliche Male in den Country Charts platzieren, jedoch legte Capitol bald seinen Fokus erst auf die Surf Welle aus Kalifornien und später auf die Invasion britischer Beat Bands, allen voran den Beatles. Ferlin wirkte in vielen Filmen mit, besonders erfolgreich war 'Las Vegas Hillbillies' 1966 mit Jayne Mansfield. 1972 wechselte Ferlin zu ABC Records. Jedoch zwangen ihn gesundheitliche Probleme mehrfach dazu, zu pausieren. Im Mai 2010 wurde Ferlin Husky in die Country Music Hall of Fame aufgenommen. Er starb am 17. März 2011 im Alter von 85 Jahren.
