LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

In the 1950s there was a wild fusion music that shocked the world and laid the groundwork for rock & roll: it was called rockabilly. A mutant variant of country music (then often referred to as hillbilly), raw and laced with the electricity of the blues and the romp of boogie woogie, it was the sound that gave birth to Elvis Presley and Carl Perkins's careers.

'Whistle Bait' collects 25 early-to-mid-'50s prime rockabilly gems. Music on Vinyl has given this superb collection the treatment which it deserves.
The 2LP album comes with a beautiful gatefold sleeve, designed by Coop and a pretty etch on Side D of the album.
On top of that the first 500 copies of the album will be printed on colored vinyl; one blue disc and one orange disc!
