Search - Gene Vincent :: Race with the Devil

2007 collection of tracks by this Rock pioneer. Prior to Gene, rarely had an artist captured the raw excitement of Rockabilly-inspired Rock 'N' Roll with an exuberant wildness few could match. His top ten million selling hit 'Be Bop A Lula' epitomized Rockabilly at its prime in 1956 with its sharp guitar breaks, spare snare drums, fluttering echo, and Vincent's breathless, sexy vocals. Yet his place as one of the great early Rock 'N' Roll artists is secure, backed up by a wealth of fine smaller hits and non-hits that rate among the best Rockabilly of all time. 16 tracks including 'Be Bop A Lula' and 'Blue Jean Bop' and more. Xtra.
