As with all this Bear Family CDs in the "That'll Flat Get It" series some tracks are better than others, but all and all they are very good, with lots of rare gems. A little pricey, but the liner notes and history included in the booklet more than makes up for the cost. Hard core rock-a-billy fans you'll love it, for a very long time.

This is an outstanding rockabilly collection covering the Dot record label. The inclusion of both takes of the Phantom's "Love Me" makes this disc worth buying alone. But there are others that make this collection irresistable--Gene Brown's "Big Door," Ray Sharpe's "Oh My Baby's Gone," and the series defining song, "Let's Flat Get It" by Danny Wolfe.

The rockabilly varies from the most absolute frantic, wild "Love Me" to boogie woogie "Carry On" by Jimmy Newman to the Texas blues style of Ray Sharpe. Pop/rockabilly is also covered on numerous tracks (Sanford Clark & Nikki Sullivan of the Crickets) and there is one disappointing country track by Jim Ringo.

As with any Bear Family release, the booklet is packed with detailed liner notes and pictures. The tracks are taken directly from the masters, thereby allowing a bigger and clearer sound.

As a Cramps fan, I was drawn in by the originals of "Love Me" and "Strange Love" (Keith Courvale). I have about 7-8 cd's from this series, and this disc is one of my favorties. Due to the pricing of Bear Family cd's, I recommend this to rockabilly enthusiasts, but casual fans might check out other collections like Get Hot Or Go Home, which is usually a bit cheaper. Or, of course, a best-of Sun rockabilly collection.

It's a shame Amazon doesn't provide a listening preview.
