<<< Travelin' Band >>>


"At a time when rock was evolving further and further away from the forces that had made the music possible in the first place, Creedence Clearwater Revival brought things back to their roots with their concise synthesis of rockabilly, swamp pop, R&B, and country. Though CCR was very much a group in their tight, punchy arrangements, their vision was very much singer, songwriter, guitarist, and leader John Fogerty's. Fogerty's classic compositions for Creedence both evoked enduring images of Americana and reflected burning social issues of the day. The band's genius was their ability to accomplish this with the economic, primal power of a classic rockabilly ensemble.

When the Beatles broke up in early 1970, CCR was the only other act that provided any competition in the fine art of crafting bold, super-catchy artistic statements that soared to the upper reaches of the charts every three or four months. Although they hailed from the San Francisco area, they rarely succumbed to the psychedelic indulgences of the era. John Fogerty also proved adept at voicing the concerns of the working class in songs like "Fortunate Son," as well as partying with as much funk as any white rock band would muster on "Travelin' Band" and "Down on the Corner."- Richie Unterberger (AMG ALL Music Guide)

<<< Rockin' Bones: Box (4 CDs) de Rockabilly e "Punk" dos 50's >>>

Rockin' Bones ("Ossos Que Rockeiam") é uma coleta firmezura da Rhino que reúne em 4 CDs 101 pérolas dos primórdios do rock and roll, em especial em suas versões mais selvagens e toscas. Uma viagem retrô por uma era de grandes topetes e motocicletas, marcada pela pélvis de Elvis e pela "Juventude Transviada" que se espelhava em James Dean. É esta a música que os Beatles e o Bob Dylan cresceram ouvindo e que os Cramps passaram a carreira inteira a venerar e reviver. Rock your bones!

"Listening to the 101 tracks on "Rockin' Bones" it's easy to see why
rockabilly continues to attract a lively cult following."

(Los Angeles Times)

"Elvis Presley's arrival in the mid-1950s left the pop music world all shook up. His explosive mixture of country music and rhythm & blues—later dubbed rockabilly—inspired imitators in virtually every state of the union. The legion of musicians who cranked up the beat, turned up the twang, set the echo to 11 and got real, real gone is saluted on Rhino's Rockin' Bones: '50s Punk & Rockabilly. the four-CD set documents some of most "action-packed" rock ever unleashed upon the listening public.

A celebration of sex, rebels, and rock 'n' roll, Rockin' Bones gathers 101 rockabilly rave-ups released by record labels both big and small from 1954 to 1969 by long gone daddies and wild, wild women. For the uninitiated, the collection serves as the perfect rockabilly primer, with quintessential cuts from such artists as Presley, Eddie Cochran, Jerry Lee Lewis, Wanda Jackson, Buddy Holly, Carl Perkins and Gene Vincent. The box also highlights many lesser-known favorites (35 tracks make their U.S. CD debut here) with the likes of Charlie Feathers, Ronnie Dawson, Hazil Adkins, Janis Martin, Joe Clay, and Johnny Carroll tearing it up."
