Various - That'll Flat Git It: Vol.45 - That'll Flat Git It! Rockabilly & Rock 'n' Roll From The Vaults Of Imperial Records (CD)

1-CD (Digipak) with 36 -page booklet, 35 tracks. Total playing time approx. 79 min.

The 45th edition in the popular 'That'll Flat Git It!' CD series on Bear Family Records® explores the rockabilly and R'n'R catalog of Imperial Records, a genre-busting L.A. label.
Among the popular rock stars on Imperial were Ricky Nelson, The Burnette Brothers, Merle Kilgore, Lew Williams, Laura Lee Perkins, Dennis Herrold, Jackie Walker and Bob Luman.
Lesser known but musically by no means less important names round off the project.
Extensive liner notes by Chicago music historian Bill Dahl and remastered recordings from the best possible sources provide additional listening pleasure - non-stop rocking!

Lew Chudd’s Los Angeles-based Imperial Records had the roots music field covered like a blanket during the ‘50s: country, rockabilly, R&B (especially of the New Orleans variety), and several more sub-genres distinguished its catalog in great abundance.

Bear Family’s ‘That'll Flat Git It! Vol. 45’ is devoted to a deep dive into Imperial’s vast archives, digging up 35 gems by some of the label’s top names. Three rockers by Imperial’s favorite teen idol Ricky Nelson are aboard, as are classics by The Burnette Brothers, Merle Kilgore, Lew Williams, Laura Lee Perkins, Dennis Herrold, Jackie Walker, and Bob Luman.

But this series is known for its super-obscurities, so there are plenty of those on offer by Tommy Lomonte, The Leen Teens, Jay Blue, Sonny Anderson and Slick Slavin, just for starters.

Freddy Fender in his formative years and New Orleans jump blues shouter Roy Brown are here too, and there’s a flat-out slab of romping Crescent City R&B by the fiery Gloria Jean Pitts. This set is a non-stop rocking delight!

That'll Flat Git It CD-Album-Series with Rockabilly Music

Classic Rockabilly on CD

Back in 1992, we had the idea that we should create the all-time definitive Rockabilly CD-Album-Series, That'll Flat Git It! - Above all, Rockabilly was music recorded for 45RPM singles, so we designed a CD-Album-Serie label-by-label instead of artist-by-artist. And we compiled it for listening pleasure. Just the great stuff, plus a few super rarities.

Every of these That'll Flat Git It CDs would be for the most part a 30 song jukebox of the finest Rockabilly ever recorded for all the great labels. We sourced the very best sounding tapes and took them to the best mastering engineers. On top we took the packaging to a new level.

We adopted the catchphrase of the first Rockabilly dee-jay, Dewey Phillips, 'That'll Flat Git It!', and we hired Bill Millar, who'd compiled the still-classic label-oriented LPs in the 1970s and 1980s, to write the notes. We looked for previously unpublished photos, and tried to find all the artists who'd never been found before.

The result is a truly definitive Rockabilly CD-Album-Serie

Customer evaluation for "Vol.45 - That'll Flat Git It! Rockabilly & Rock 'n' Roll From The Vaults Of Imperial Records (CD)"

From: Dusty Groove On:14 Apr 2024

Bear Family does a great job of telling their stories and sharing the music in the CD's very big booklet of notes, label scans, and other vintage images!

The mighty Imperial Records was home to a fair bit of pop, blues, and R&B in the postwar years – but the label also had a slightly secret history as a hotbed for raw rock and hard-edged singles during the same stretch of time! Imperial was an indie, and one that kept an ear to the ground for new sounds far beyond its home in LA – a legacy that certainly comes through in the R&B they recorded, and the paths they forged in hillbilly music too – and which also really shows in this great mix of rare singles from back in the day! A few artists are are ones you'll know from other musical moments in their lives, and most of the rest are pretty darn obscure – yet, as always, Bear Family does a great job of telling their stories and sharing the music in the CD's very big booklet of notes, label scans, and other vintage images.
