Artist: IAN B. MACLEOD - THE ROCKABILLY COWBOY
Born of a Scottish father and English mother, Ian B. MacLeod first set foot on Australian soil whilst with the Merchant Navy when he and some fellow crew members appeared on 2UW's Amateur Hour and won it, only to be disqualified later when it was discovered that they weren't residents!This was all the incentive Ian needed and when he got back...

Artist: Queen
Few bands embodied the pure excess of the '70s like Queen. Embracing the exaggerated pomp of prog rock and heavy metal, as well as vaudevillian music hall, the British quartet delved deeply into camp and bombast, creating a huge, mock-operatic sound with layered guitars and overdubbed vocals. Queen's music was a bizarre yet highly accessible... [+] Read More

Artist: Elvis Presley
Elvis Presley may be the single most important figure in American 20th century popular music. Not necessarily the best, and certainly not the most consistent. But no one could argue with the fact that he was the musician most responsible for popularizing rock & roll on an international level. Viewed in cold sales figures, his impact was... [+] Read More
Artist: The Love Drunks
The Atlanta foursome of the Love Drunks play hoarsely yelped punkish rock with undertones of blues, rockabilly, and garage rock. ~ Richie Unterberger, All Music Guide [+] Read More

Artist: Corky Jones
Like several other musicians that were principally known as country singers, Buck Owens made a brief detour into rockabilly music when that music was making its biggest commercial splash in the mid-'50s. And, like George Jones, he issued his rockabilly recordings under a pseudonym, so as not to upset members of the country music establishment... [+] Read More
Artist: Sun Rhythm Section
A congregation of Memphis rockabilly stalwarts, including Paul Burlison, Sonny Burgess, D.J. Fontana, Stan Kesler, Marcus Van Story, and Smoochie Smith. ~ John Floyd, All Music Guide [+] Read More
Artist: Kenny Rogers
It took several tries before Kenny Rogers became a star. As a member of the First Edition (and the New Christy Minstrels before that), he shared in some million-sellers, among them "Reuben James" and "Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town," an excellent Mel Tillis song about a disabled veteran. But superstardom lay ahead for this Texan, and it... [+] Read More
Artist: John Costa
Rockabilly bassist John Costa should not be confused with the pianist from the Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood show. The bassist's neighborhood is Los Angeles and his specialty is rockabilly revival, which he has thumped and taped with bands such as Thirteen Stars. He also has no relation to the John Costa who played bass in a '60s Rhode Island band,... [+] Read More
Artist: David Nelson

Rockabilly guitarist Mark Gamsjager is the driving force behind the Lustre Kings, the band he formed in the mid-'90s to accompany his performances.

Artist: Colin Winski
Oblivious to all passing pop music trends, retro-rockabilly cat Colin Winski proudly carried the torch for vintage rock & roll from the punk era onward. Born in Hollywood in 1957 and raised in Venice, California, his early infatuation with Elvis Presley also led him to explore the music of Gene Vincent, Roy Orbison and others. In 1970, Winski...

Artist: Larry Collins
With his sister Lorrie, guitarist and singer Larry Collins was part of the brother-sister duo the Collins Kids, who cut some of the best rockabilly of the 1950s. Playing a double-neck guitar, Collins was a brilliant guitar prodigy, and took time to cut some hot instrumental duets with mentor Joe Maphis, a country guitarist 20 years his senior....
