Various - That'll Flat Git It!: Vol.35 - Rockabilly & Rock 'n' Roll From The Vaults Of Mercury And Limelight Records (CD)

1-CD (Digipak) with 28 page booklet, 35 tracks. Total playing time approx. 79 minutes.

Another great compilation in our CD series with label portraits!
Just like all its forerunners, this album works as a perfect rockabilly and rock & roll jukebox.
Once again in focus: Mercury Records' high-quality catalog, first introduced in parts as 'That'll Flat Git It! Vol.11' (BCD16101) by Bear Family in the 90s.
Unbridled classics of the '50s by a young Conway Twitty, Eddie Bond and Narvel Felts as well as rare gems by Curtis Gordon, Orville Couch, Royce Porter or James O'Gwynn.
Comprehensive booklet with biographies of each artist - written by Bill Dahl from Mercury's hometown Chicago - and rare photos and illustrations.

Founded in 1945, Chicago's Mercury Records rapidly accrued major label status and grew into a full-service label, its massive roster encompassing everything from blues and R&B to country and jazz and a wealth of pop (the logo was a leader in covering R&B hits for the pop market). Mercury also signed a small army of quality rockabilly and rock and roll artists during the mid-to-late 1950s, and they're the focus of this bountiful collection.

Blistering classics by a pre-fame Conway Twitty, Memphis mainstay Eddie Bond, and the still-active Narvel Felts are on board, along with rare gems by Curtis Gordon (his torrid Draggin' appears without the usual startling reverb effects), Orville Couch, Royce Porter, James O'Gwynn, Charlie Walker, leather-lunged George Young, and swamp pop greats Rod Bernard, Jerry Raines, and Roy Perkins (Mercury had excellent contacts in southern Louisiana).

Eddy Bell & The Bel-Aires' rollicking The Masked Man (Hi Yo Silver) hailed from the label's Windy City backyard, but the label spared no expense in bringing in sizzling rockers from all over the country—as this compilation excitingly attests!

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

FINALLY! And HOLY SHIT IT REALLY ROCKS!

I was always thinking about when Bear Family would put out a second volume on Mercury AND HERE WE GO! Holy shit! I wasn't aware that the output on Rockers was THAT BIG and it includes the US-version without echo of Curtis Gordon's 'Draggin'! The sound is CRACKIN'! THANK YOU Bear Family for the world's greatest Rockabilly series - THE ROCKABILLY SERIES 'That'll Flat Git It'! With your releases you make the world a little brighter in these COVID-19 times! Many thanks from an enthusiastic Rock & Roll Daddy-O!
