That Lance is incredible! How old is he?! Yeah Jerry Lee's music is what got me into rockabilly in the first place... It just makes me want to squeeze into a pair of lime green cigarette pants with matching patent pumps and pretend Im a virgin |

Oh and regarding the Scandinavian rockabilly... Apparently it's pretty popular over there; if you listen to their pronunciation of /o/ in words like "love" and "everlovin," you'll notice they drag it out into more of an /ah/ or even short /a/ sound, totally giving away the accent... It's subtle but distinct.

I'm especially impressed that Lance and his guitarist Wyatt Maxwell are ... ..."in the process of building their own analog studio to finish recording the rest of the [The Lover's debut] album. This studio will have no computers, no overdubs in the recording, just played live in the moment as it was in the 50's."(from lovers) I look forward to hearing their album when it's done. I'm now envisioning these pants, which are pretty cool: Quote:

Love this psychobilly number by the Delta Bombers: "The Wolf"
Also, I'm getting into JD McPherson's music, has a lot of soul to it, and what a powerful voice: And another good one by the Go-Getters, goin' out to all you aforementioned sexually-repressed vintage teenagers out there... |

Wanda Jackson, Brenda Lee, and Conway Twitty are my big three in Rockabilly right now.
Brenda Lee's version of What'd I Say (originally Ray Charles) is very quickly becoming one of my favorite songs of all time. It's absolute fire, Brenda's energy on it is smokin', the production is mondo heavy, whoever is on the kit is a ****ing animal, and I've read multiple times online that Jimmy Page is the session guitarist for this track, and it feels true to my ears, especially towards the end. If it is true it only makes it even more magical knowing where this kind of energy would take him only a few years later.

I absolutely love rockabilly, and it's psychobilly offshoot, as exemplified by bands such as Reverend Horton Heat. I had the honor of seeing the Queen Of Rockabilly, Wanda Jackson, three times before she stopped touring. Here's one of my favorite tunes by her:
