I've been sent down a rockabilly rabbit-hole after seeing this toot:

It was my big sister (sadly no longer with us) who first opened my ears to the genre by virtue of her owning this record.

I played it rather a lot for her:

@nicksalt

That's great!

I seem to remember John Peel playing his music back in day?

@essjay I used to live near him, never knew him, I played in a band with his son Joe a couple of times, and was in a reggae band with a guy who used to drum for him. Apparently when my drummer buddy was round his house one day, Brian Setzer of the Stray Cats phoned up and invited them all to Paris to see the Stray Cats do a gig 🤣🤣🤣 His son Joe Grogan is a really good musician too👍👍
