Rockabilly Boogie

"Blue Cats are probably one of the best neo-rockabilly groups. This album is full of material before the band was known as The Blue Cats (they played as South Rebels, Blue Cat Trio and Little Tony & The Tennessee Rebels). Their influence was of course Gene Vincent, what you can tell by their name.
This album is including rockin' songs of Gene Vincent & his Blue Caps, Johnny Burnette & His Rock 'n' Roll Trio, Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins and their originals. So authentic rockabilly that you can hardly tell that it is recorded in 80's. Probably the best remakes of songs known by 1950s artists."

Blue Caps or Blue Cats?

"This is a compilation of the early Blue Cats stuff. Blue Cats recorded only one album in original line-up in 1980. And it was so great, it was a milestone in British rockabilly. So, this compilation gathered together many unreleased material which was recorded by the original Blue Cats members. Only a few original songs, but if you wanna feel the spirit of the Rockabilly revival - this one is for you!"
