2008 collection containing 35 tracks from the human jukebox. Sleepy LaBeef rocks! We're talking raw and authentic 1950s Rockabilly here. And some 1960s and 1970s recordings that Rock even harder, if possible, while retaining the uncompromising spirit that only a true original artist can. Sleepy LaBeef was there in the mid-1950s when Rockabilly was born. He heard and saw it all, and he was a part of it. From his first records for Starday and Dixie in Texas, through small Houston labels and the major national label, Columbia, Sleepy still kept rocking. He carried on rocking on the reactivated Sun label in the 1970s. It was a marriage made in Rock 'N' Roll heaven. Bear Family.
