Description
THE METEORS, Home Grown Rockabilly, various artists 12" LP
YOU ARE BIDDING FOR AN ULTRA RARE PRESSING OF THE ALLIGATOR RECORDS COMPILATION "HOME GROWN ROCKABILLY" WHICH FEATURES THE VERY FIRST TRACKS, PSYCHOBILLY KINGS THE METEORS RECORDED. THIS PARTICULAR COPY IS THE FINNISH PRESSING ON THE REBEL RECORDS LABEL (ROLLS 008), LICENCED FROM ALLIGATOR. IT IS EXTREMELY RARE. I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANOTHER COPY. IT DIFFERS FROM THE REGULAR ISSUE (WHICH IS VERY RARE IN IT'S OWN RIGHT) IN THE SLEEVE COLOUR, PINK RATHER THAN GREEN, AND ALSO DOES NOT CONTAIN THE POLECATS TRACK WHICH IS REPLACED BY JOHNNY KEY'S (KEEP) MY BIG WHEELS TURNIN'. OBVIOUSLY THE CENTRE LABELS ARE UNIQUE TOO. MOST OF YOU READING THIS WILL KNOW THAT THE 3 METEORS TRACKS: CRAZY LOVE, GO AWAY & MY BABY LOVES ME (YES SHE DOES) INCLUDED HERE WERE REALLY TONED DOWN FOR THIS ALBUM AND ARE IN A MUCH MORE ROCKABILLY (THAN PSYCHOBILLY) VEIN. ALSO ON THE LP TRACKS BY: THE RHYTHM CATS, JOHNNY KEY & GENTLEMAN JIM, BOTH WITH THE KOOL KATS. THE VINYL IS NEAR MINT, THE SLEEVE A LITTLE CREASED & WORN AROUND THE EDGES & GENERALLY VERY GOOD
THIS IS AN EXTREMELY RARE PRESSING, GRAB IT WHILE YOU CAN
