Now here it is - the latest album from Charlie Gracie !
Charlie is back to his roots again - rockabilly/early RnR/Rhythm
and Blues recorded in the fabulous Lightning Recording Studios
in Berlin, backed by europes finest roots/rockabilly musicians
from Ike and the Capers, Jesse Al Tuscan and the Roundup Boys.
Its truly a european authenic production. Recorded live on 50s
equipment, taped on a1962 tape recorder in MONO - thats true
Rock and Roll !
Charlie Gracie is one of a diminishing number of rock-n-roll
innovators, who continues to actively perform. A native of South
Philadelphia, he became the first successful recording star
of the "Rock Era" to emerge from that neighborhood.
In 1957, Charlie's 'Butterfly' topped the American and British
music charts, selling over 3 million copies. His other late
fifties big sellers include: 'Fabulous', 'Ninety-Nine Ways',
'Wanderin Eyes' and 'I Love You So Much It Hurts'. These hits
bankrolled Philly's famous Cameo-Parkway record label, making
it a dominant force in the music industry for nearly a decade!
At the height of his fame, Charlie frequently appeared on 'Dick
Clark's American Bandstand', 'The Ed Sullivan Show', and 'Alan
Freed's TV Specials'. Charlie's star burned even brighter in
Great Britain where he became the second American artist to
bring rock-n-roll to the English concert stage. Preceded only
by Bill Haley, Charlie headlined the London Palladium and Hippodrome
receiving outstanding receptions from the press and public.
To this day, Charlie Gracie, is a much loved and respected performer
the length and breadth of the United Kingdom.
Its another fantastic CD following the goal of Rhythm Bomb Records
to produce new material with 50s artists and the best available
musicians of today. See our catalogue for more great releases
from Huelyn Duvall, Glenn Honeycutt and Rayburn Anthony.
Hope you dig this new release as much as we do.
