Mystery Train
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Submitted by kitti (15 June 2010)
The Mystery Train was officially born 30 years ago (in 1980), even though the guys started playing together three years before that. As it usually happens, the members were changing, but the bass player (Ari Hanninen) stayed in the band all the time.
Singles and EP’s were realeased during band’s musical life and finally...

J. Tex & The Volunteers
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Submitted by kitti (25 May 2010)
Maybe it is a pure accident, but all cds that I have been receiving from Scandinavia are of a very good quality: in style, looks and the most important - musically. This one is not an exception and is a perfect choice for those, who like old and not so old country music. 14 tracks, mostly...

Adam And His Nuclear Rockets
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Submitted by kitti (13 April 2010)
Do you also need some extra energy during spring time? Then instead of vitamins and energy drinks you can “take” this fine Croatian rockabilly band one time a day/week (depends on your mood) and you will feel already much better. Lots of record shops will provide you with the newest album of Adam and his Nuclear...

Fireball Steven

The series of the Rhythm Bomb Records, called “The Many Sides Of”, is a collection of the best songs of (mostly) modern artists, which were recorded during some period of time. Fireball Steven (Nic Steven Nilsson in normal life) is one those who was lucky enough to be part of that project.
First six songs...

Starline Rhythm Boys
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Submitted by kitti (27 February 2010)
The next band in the line to be judged is rockabilly trio the Starline Rhythm Boys, from Vermont (where you can see them playing live almost every weekend). The record is clear and very professional. Addition of applauses, yelling and cheers makes the cd even more “live”.
The strongest point of the band –...

Lucky Marcell And The Ramblin’ Three
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Submitted by kitti (21 January 2010)
The band consists of four good looking (and very serious… just check some youtube videos) musicians from Serbia. The music is hot and Lucky Marcell and The Ramblin’ Three is certainly something for those who prefer rockabilly bands from “exotic” countries.
To be honest (as usual), I have no idea for how long has the...

Various Artists

If you are sick and tired of 1950’s compilations, which have pretty the same names on the covers (like Elvis, Johhny Burnette, Jerry Lewis, Eddie Cochran, Buddy Holly, etc), this cd is certainly something for you!
What I like about this “Collector's Choice” series that it introduces us to old “new” music. This one,...

Gagarin Brothers
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Submitted by kitti (19 January 2010)
If you have myspace profile, probably you have recieved friend request from some Gagarin Brothers and even more probably afterwords you got a comment from them, saying “From Russia with Love”. Well, they seem to be a little bit too annoying, but they ARE certainly a very good band. And they didn’t pay me to say...

Jack Rabbit Slim

They’re back with album number 4,twelve new tracks including 11 originals, red hot and smouldering songs that burn their way right through you, this rock n roll is dangerous.
The scene today is full of bands doing the same thing; the same covers, ‘the authentic ‘50’s sound’, what JRS do is push the boundaries...

Quarter Mile Combo
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Submitted by kitti (13 January 2010)
The first full-length cd of Californian rock’n’roll band ¼ Mile Combo was released last year. The guys started the band in 2004, but the lineup (as it is now) became complete two years later, when Nettie Hammar, the lead singer, joined the band. So three years of proper work and here they are: 12 self-penned tracks,...

Tin Cans
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Submitted by kitti (13 January 2010)
I have never seen the Tin Cans live, but have heard the name many times. And it is understandable: they are touring all around Europe and they are on the rock’n’roll stage more than 10 years… and like the cd says - “Still Rockin!”
To be honest, and maybe not very polite, the cover seems...

Buck Stevens
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Submitted by bopperer (19 December 2009)
As much as I have heard new and not-so-new rockabilly artists, strangely enough name of Buck Stevens has never brushed past my ears. That's why I was quite surprised to find out this guy isn't a brand-new artist at all, since he has already three albums in his discography, two of them recorded in 2004-2006 at...

Rockin Bonnie & The Rot Gut Shots
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Submitted by rockinev (14 December 2009)
This is an album that I have been looking forward to for two years now. Ever since witnessing Rockin Bonnie’s debut at the Rockabilly Rave in 2007, when they completely took the entire place by surprise with an absolutely superb set, that in my mind still rates as one of the best I have seen anywhere....
