Title: Rockabilly Post by: SacDuc on May 31, 2008, 05:14:43 PM Anybody listen to rockabilly? I dig certain "country" styles of music. "Country & Western" and Top 40 Pop Country can pretty well make the beast with two backs off (though they have their moments). I like Hank III and Robert Earl Keen. I like blue grass and the Delta Blues and such. And I really dig rockabilly type stuff when I hear it. Any suggestions on the rockabilly front? Mystery Gang. Skip rats. What else? What about more modern harder edged type stuff? sac Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: SacDuc on May 31, 2008, 05:31:53 PM Bobspapa, If Buck Owens is mentioned in this thread I will punch you square in the dick. Fair warning given. sac Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: LMT on May 31, 2008, 05:34:03 PM http://www.juniorbrown.com/
Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: desmoquattro on May 31, 2008, 05:43:20 PM Maybe not exactly rockabilly, but I used to really dig Southern Culture on the Skids (http://www.scots.com/home/default.asp).
Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: slowpoke13 on May 31, 2008, 05:58:14 PM BUCK OWENS Does this mean you're going to punch him square in the dick? /instigator Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: ducatiz on May 31, 2008, 05:59:59 PM Memphis Rockabilly Band -- very original style, but lots of "digression" if you will.
El Vez, Dimestore Heroes.. Kings of Nuthin are sort of rockabilly, maybe more punk R&B Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: SacDuc on May 31, 2008, 06:36:00 PM Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: herm on May 31, 2008, 06:42:00 PM is steve earle country?
i like a couple of his songs. the country ones, not the westerns ;) Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: Scottish on May 31, 2008, 06:48:11 PM Put a couple of your favs in Pandora Radio and see what plays.
Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: T-byrd on May 31, 2008, 07:04:31 PM If you dig Hank the III, you'll most likely dig Wayne Hancock. Robert Gordon, Old Tiger Army (the newest release sucks balz I think), Mike Ness (Social D front man) has a couple of awesome CD's, Rev. Horton Heat (best show live...ever!), Rezurex, Nekromantics, Mad Sin, Horrorpops...that should get you started if you want Rockabilly. [thumbsup]

Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: Grampa on May 31, 2008, 07:40:34 PM http://www.juniorbrown.com/ one of the best concerts I ever went to. He opened for the Mavricks.

Specifically, listen to Galaxy 500 and It's Martini Time. Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: LMT on May 31, 2008, 07:50:41 PM What about Marty Stewart? Not really rockabilly, but good nonetheless.

Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: Slide Panda on May 31, 2008, 09:37:45 PM I'm in the same camp at T-Byrd for my suggestions. Couple other bands I've seen play are The legendary Shack Shakers, and Dash Riprock. Both put on good sets when they were opening for the Rev.
iF you've got XM channel 53 has a segment called 'Hee Haw Hell' a few times at day that's all Rockabilly/Psychobilly and Cow punk. Good way to discover some new bands http://www.xmradio.com/onxm/channelguide.xmc?ch=53 Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: T-byrd on June 01, 2008, 05:50:38 AM I'm in the same camp at T-Byrd for my suggestions.

The lead singer came out with a goat mask on and they rocked from start to finish. Pure psychobilly bad-ass! Can't forget about The Meteors, considered the founders of psychobilly. Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: Scooter Montgomery on June 01, 2008, 11:16:42 AM I disagree with T, I like the new Tiger Army release.

awesome live, sadly though Satan's Cheerleaders retired last halloween. Fortunately I was at the show. Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: yamifixer on June 03, 2008, 08:27:35 AM Does anybody get punched if I say i LOVE Dwight Yoakam?
I also vote for the stray cats and the BSO. it work for me. Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: Fritzkrieg on June 04, 2008, 12:30:00 AM +1 on The Rev and The Meteors. . .

Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: SacDuc on June 04, 2008, 12:44:13 PM Thanks for all of your input guys and gals. After sampling the various sub genres I find I really like what I have seen refered to as Cow Punk, Punkabilly and Psyhcobilly. [evil] [thumbsup] Hmmmm, I just got a 4G memory card for my Blackberry. I's gots me some downloadin' to do! sac Title: Re: Rockabilly Post by: Dxomas on June 04, 2008, 01:42:13 PM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vm2Mdma2dXw&feature=related
