Other Side of Bakersfield : Vol. 2-Other Side of Bakersfield (CD)

EU-only collection devoted exclusively to Bakersfield Rockabilly, Boogie, Hillbilly Bop and Teen Rock. THE OTHER SIDE OF BAKERSFIELD VOLUME TWO highlights the city's artists and independent labels that dared to indulge their rocking impulses. From familiar names like Buck Owens and Red Simpson, to collector favorites like Bill Carter and Al Hendrix, this is the story of the rockin' side of the town that went on to forge it's own musical subgenre. Many of the tracks are released on CD here for the first time. With detailed liner notes, including track-by-track commentary by Scott B. Bomar, biographical details about the artists, and a plethora of photos, this carefully compiled collection is a treasure trove of goodies for fans of the Bakersfield Sound, 1950s and '60s era Hillbilly boppers, and red-hot Rockabilly.
