    OFFERS INVITED by Mark Berresford Rare Records The Chequers, Chequer Lane, Shottle, Derbyshire, DE56 2DR, England. Tel: (+44) 1773 550275 Email: [email protected] Postage and packing in purpose-built new boxes extra. Winners only notified. Condition, as ever, guaranteed. Minimum bid unless stated £8/$10, however I reserve the right to refuse bids I consider unrealistic. AUCTION CLOSES MIDNIGHT 18th FEBRUARY 2018 HOW TO BID Basically, there are two ways of bidding; first is the simple Straight Bid - you offer a fixed amount for an item and if yours is the high - est bid, you win. Secondly, and easier for those more familair with internet auctions, and for those collectors unsure of what to offer, is the Maximum Bid. You offer a bid to a maximum amount, which will be increased in 10% increments over the nearest bid up to your maximum amount. For example, you bid to a maximum of $100 on an item, but the next highest bid is $20 - you will pay $22, i.e. 10% over the the next highest bid. In the event of a tie the fixed bidder, or earliest-placed bid wins. IMPORTANT! Please make clear the system of bidding you are using and currency you are bidding in (Pounds Sterling, Euros or US Dollars). If you have a maximum budget to spend, please advise with your bids. Please also double check your item numbers when bidding - I do not use titles or issue numbers on my auction spreadsheet, so if you bid on the wrong number and win it, it’s yours! NOTE: Some of the categorisation of certain instrumental-based artists has been, by necessity, arbitrary so please check all sections.

  • ROCK'n'roll's 1ST DECADE Week
    ROCK'N'ROLL’S 1ST DECADE Week One: The Roots of Rock Recommended Listening: The Delmore Brothers, Freight Train Boogie (Ace, 1993). Country-boogie songs from 1946-51 by this brother duo, whose more uptempo material was not only some of the finest country music of the era, but an important building block of rockabilly and early rock & roll. Fats Domino, The Early Imperial Singles 1950-1952 (Ace, 1996 & 1997). Thorough collections of the first few years or so of singles by the most important early New Orleans rock'n'roll star, whose singles of the early 1950s weren't all that different from the pop hits he had after rock took off. The Drifters, Let the Boogie-Woogie Roll: Greatest Hits 1953-1958 (Atlantic, 1988). Perhaps the most consistent, and certainly one of the most important, of the doo wop groups that had their first success prior to 1955. This has their mid-1950s R&B hits, some of them featuring lead singer Clyde McPhatter. The Drifters who had numerous early soul hits in the late 1950s and early 1960s had entirely different personnel, and were linked to this version of the group only by the trademark name. Bill Haley & His Comets, Rock the Joint! The Original Essex Recordings 1951-1954 (Rollercoaster, 1992). Bill Haley & His Comets were the first white band to fuse rhythm and blues with country music into something recognizable as rock'n'roll, and were doing so for four years before "Rock Around the Clock" became the first huge rock hit. This has those early recordings, including one from 1952 ("Rock the Joint") quite similar to "Rock Around the Clock," and his first single to become a Top Twenty pop hit, 1953's "Crazy, Man, Crazy." John Lee Hooker, The Legendary Modern Recordings 1948- 1954 (Flair/Virgin, 1993).

With its aggressive beat and anti-establishment connotations, rockabilly is considered a widely male-dominated genre, a point supported by the majority of scholarship and literature on the subject. However, a review of available contemporary recordings, television shows, advertisements and interviews show that women were an integral part of the history of rockabilly music.

  • The Heart of Rock and Soul by Dave Marsh
    The Heart of Rock and Soul by Dave Marsh 63 GOOD ROCKIN' TONIGHT, Elvis Presley Produced by Sam Phillips; written by Roy Brown Sun 210 1954 Did not make pop charts "That's All Right, Mama, " Elvis's first single, might have been a fluke. But "Good Rockin' Tonight" was more of the same, and better, establishing that all concerned - Scotty Moore, Bill Black, Sam Phillips, but especially Elvis himself - knew exactly what they were up to and. indeed, had alreadv created a new and improved model. Thirty years later. "Good Rockin' Tonight" still sounds like what's about to happen. Elvis wrote no songs, and none of his Sun Records material was written for him. In fact, the best of his Sun songs had already been hits for others. Of them all, only "Good Rockin' Tonight" was already great, having been done superbly in the late forties both by author Brown and by Wynonie Harris, the most famous blues shouter of the period. If you're sufficiently familiar with Brown's style, you'll easily spot his influence. But it's still hard to believe that this is the same song, not because Elvis's version is particularly country and God knows, not because he rocks harder - try rocking harder than Wynonie Harris and you'll rupture something. Some of the differences are in the arrangement, with Bill Black's rubbery bass and Scotty Moore's stinging guitar replacing the original, horn-based jump blues patterns. But the difference that counts is Elvis, This was only his second single, but he'd already established his weird mixture of ferocious self-confidence and complete easefulness, and he sings "Good Rockin' Tonight" as if he's inventing it.
