THREE MONTHS TO KILL - WEST COAST ROCK 'N' ROLL - LIMITED EDITION 180 GRAM 2LP
LONG DELETED AND HARD TO FIND!
Having loaded up the station wagon and filled the gas tank, Fantastic Voyage continues its exciting series of regional Rock’n’Roll, a musical travelogue exploring some of the rockin’est recordings from across the US.
Combining the glitz’n’glamour of the world’s entertainment epicentre with a freewheeling spirit that harks back to the pioneering days of old, the “Golden State” offers a wealth of rockin’ recordings as diverse and enduring as its endless summer image. From the C&W honky-tonk circuit to the hit-making hubs of Hollywood and Bakersfield, Three Months To Kill charts the A-listers, the also-rans and the lesser-heard whose wild waxings helped put California on the musical map.
From Rock’n’Roll hero Eddie Cochran to Chicano teen star Ritchie Valens, this dynamic 2-LP set motors along the musical highways and byways, pausing en route to pop a nickel in the jukebox and sample the audio delights of local labels such as Challenge, Crest, and Del-Fi, all of which helped define the regional sound.
Carefully compiled by Lucky Parker in conjunction with the legendary Wild Wax Show’s deejay “Jailhouse” John Alexander, Three Months To Kill offers a dazzling selection sure to appeal to both avid collectors and those just beginning their journey of discovery.
