Sleepy LaBeef – Larger Than Life (6-CD Deluxe Box Set)

Final copies available – once sold out, this title will be deleted!

He was a force of nature. A towering figure with a booming baritone voice, an endless repertoire, and a stage presence that could shake any venue: Sleepy LaBeef. Few artists embodied the full spectrum of American roots music as authentically as he did – from rock ’n’ roll and rockabilly to country, blues, and gospel.

“Larger Than Life” is the ultimate documentation of this extraordinary artist – a monumental 6-CD deluxe box set in LP-size format featuring 159 tracks and more than 400 minutes of pure music history.

This definitive edition brings together for the first time:

The early recordings for Starday, Dixie, and other Gulf Coast labels
Rare and previously unissued demo recordings
The complete Columbia recordings (1965–1967)
All Sun recordings from 1970–1979
His gospel and western LP releases

Classics such as “Ride On Josephine,” “Boom Boom Boom,” “Ragged But Right,” “Thunder Road,” and “There Ain’t Much After Taxes” are all included – alongside rare gems that showcase the remarkable stylistic range and musical knowledge that made Sleepy LaBeef unique.

This box set presents Sleepy not only as a legendary live performer, but as one of the most important preservers and interpreters of American musical tradition. His deep, commanding voice and encyclopedic command of songs make this collection an essential journey through the roots of American music.

The high-quality LP-size box also includes a 28-page booklet with detailed liner notes and rare photographs – a true collector’s piece for rock ’n’ roll historians and serious roots music enthusiasts.

Sleepy LaBeef Obituary

Sleepy LaBeef Obituary Rockabilly legend Sleepy LaBeef who began his career in the mid-’50s and whose concerts continued to be a draw for the rockabilly community well into this year, died on December 26, 2019 at age 84. No cause of death has been given. Although LaBeef never had great chart success, his legend loomed almost as large as he did - the singer was around six-and-a-a-half feet tall - at festivals where he was often the lone remaining original 1950s rocker. He earned his own chapter in one of the essential books about rock’s pioneers, Peter Guralnick’s “Lost Highway: Journeys and Arrivals of American Musicians.”
