Nashville Rock'n'roll
'Nashville Rock'n'roll' presents very obscure stuff from the late Fifties and early Sixties. Murray Nash was one of the founding fathers of the Nashville music scene, having started back in 1937 with RCA and working his way through Mercury and Acuff-Rose before starting his own group of recording and publishing companies based around the Do-Ra-Me Records label. This CD is a tribute to Murray Nash, who died in 2001. Excellent sides from Murray Nash's Do-Ra-Me Records label and its various affiliated labels recorded between 1959 and 1969 including several previously unissued tracks. There are five tracks by the excellent singer/piano player Mel Robbins who later went on to fame and fortune as Nashville sideman Hargus 'Pig' Robbins. There are some great instrumentals from Cliff Nash, The Imps and The Sting Rays as well as fine vocals from Chuck Wiley, Chuck Howard (two takes of the amusing 'Out Of Gas'), Curtis Hobock (including a fine cover of Charlie Rich's 'Lonely Weekends'), Little Willie Brown (fine R&B singer - one of the few black artists to record for Nash), Fred Carter and others. Fine sound and nice illustrated booklet with informative notes.
