Stormy Gayle – Flipsville (1959)

I have a preposterous number of CDs featuring obscure rockabilly from the 1950s.

There’s the “That’ll Flat Git It” series on the wonderful Bear Family label operating out of Germany and a whole pile of themed CDs on ”Buffalo Bop” records. The quality is always a bit mixed and you have to sift through a lot of generic stuff to find the gems.

The “Desperate Rock’n'Roll” series is one of the most consistent and this track is a classic – not quite as frantic as Johnny Burnette (previously posted here) but great guitar and pace.
