King Size Taylor - one of the great British rockers and member of the legendary Hamburg Star-Club family!
Taylor was always a rocker and less of a beat musician.
LP/CD combo; only 4 tracks are also featured on King Size Taylor's CD in Bear Family's 'The Brits Are Rocking' series
'Taylor Made' focuses on his best rockers recorded for Ariola and the rare Philips single Somebody's Always Trying.
Twenty-five of the twenty-seven songs on the CD were recorded in 1957/58 in the living room of Sam Hardie, the Dominoes’ pianist, Taylor's band - legally available for the first time on this particular release.
In the large-format booklet with liner notes by Marc Mittelacher, there are plenty of photos from Taylor's private archive showing him and stars of rock 'n' roll in the 50s.
Carefully mastered and with a photo postcard originally signed by King Size Taylor as a bonus!
We guarantee pure listening pleasure!

Especially here in Germany, King Size Taylor was known in the early sixties as a regular guest in Hamburg's Star-Club. In the Hanseatic city he performed more than 250 gigs between 1962 and 1964 and recorded exclusively in Germany during this time. Due to the creation of legends around the young Beatles, King Size Taylor also ran under the popular label 'Beat'. But on closer inspection Taylor was and always remained the real rocker from the British Isles.

After his first musical attempts in a skiffle band (1957), the guitarist and singer, who was born in Liverpool on November 12, 1939, soon founded a rock 'n' roll outfit, which performed under King Size Taylor And The Dominoes from 1960 onwards and moved to Hamburg in 1962. Ariola released live recordings from the Star-Club. An album recorded a little later, 'Let's Do The Slop, Twist, Madison, Hully Gully ...' was released by the German Polydor - under the pseudonym The Shakers. Single releases were also released in the UK, including Money, Whole Lotta Lovin' and Hippy Hippy Shake. Like the other numbers on the original LPs, these songs were cover versions of the hottest rock and R&B stars of their time.

"King Size Taylor"

Nach ersten musikalischen Gehversuchen in einer Skiffle Band (1957) gründete der am 12. November 1939 in Liverpool geborene Gitarrist und Sänger bald darauf zusätzlich eine Rock ‚n‘ Roll-Formation, die ab 1960 unter King Size Taylor And The Dominoes auftrat und 1962 gen Hamburg zog. Ariola veröffentlichte Liveaufnahmen aus dem Star-Club. Ein etwas später aufgenommenes Album, ‚Let’s Do The Slop, Twist, Madison, Hully Gully ...‘ erschien bei der deutschen Polydor – unter dem Pseudonym The Shakers. Singleauskopplungen wurden auch in Großbritannien veröffentlicht, darunter Money, Whole Lotta Lovin‘ und Hippy Hippy Shake. Wie auch die anderen Nummern auf den LPs waren diese Songs Coverversionen von seinerzeit angesagten Rock- und R&B-Originalen.

Nach der Auflösung der Band ging Taylor zurück nach England, wo er allerdings nicht an den großen Erfolg seiner Tage in Hamburg anknüpfen konnte.

Besonders bei uns in Deutschland war King Size Taylor in den frühen Sechzigerjahren als regelmäßiger Gast im Hamburger Star-Club bekannt. In der Hansestadt absolvierte er zwischen 1962 und 1964 mehr als 250 Auftritte und nahm während dieser Zeit ausschließlich in Deutschland auf. Durch die Legendenbildung rund um die jungen Beatles lief bei uns King Size Taylor ebenfalls unter dem populären Etikett ‚Beat‘. Doch bei etwas genauerer Betrachtung war und blieb Taylor stets der waschechte Rocker von den Britischen Inseln.

From: Bear Family Presse On: 23 Nov 2020

Absoluter Raritäten-Alarm auf höchstem Niveau!

Press Archive - King Size Taylor Dr. Feelgood - Taylor Made LP (LP, 10inch) - musikreviews
FAZIT: Zitieren wir hier einfach mal aus dem „Scrap Book“, das dieser extrem raren, streng limitierten und sogar mit einem Autogramm-Foto samt Originalunterschrift versehenen, remasterten 10“-Vinyl-Version plus gut 65 Minuten langen CD beiliegt: „Neben den beiden Bonustracks aus einer frühen Demo-Session der Band enthält das Album, das du in deinen Händen hältst, auch Decca/Ariola-Tracks, die 1964 in Hamburg aufgenommen wurden. Dabei enthält die CD die kompletten 50er-Jahre-Demo-Sessions (hier zum ersten Mal auf CD!), sowie eine äußerst seltene UK-Decca-Single von 1964… This is KING SIZE TAYLOR's rock'n'roll-beat-slop-twist-parade!“
„Taylor Made“ von KING SIZE TAYLOR ist ein musikalischer Edelstein aus dem Hause Bear Family Records, mit dem sie sich zugleich selbst übertroffen haben! Absoluter Raritäten-Alarm auf höchstem Niveau!
