Jerrels - Wanted Man (LP)
€17,00Quick Viewhe Jerrells formed in late 2019, in an effort to explore the more electric American Roots styles of the 1950’s. Up to that point I had spent decades playing the hillbilly, western, and swing music of the 20’s, 30’s and 40’s with White Ghost Shivers, as well as more traditional styles of Country. As a kid, I was completely enthralled by rock n’ roll, in all its forms. It only made sense that now everything would come crashing together in The Jerrells.
”Wanted Man” is a collection of songs from 3 different recording sessions. Chronologically, ”Powder Room Mama” was the first song The Jerrells ever recorded, and the first song I wrote for the band. I had an opportunity to film and record high quality video and audio in Winter of 2019, and so I essentially assembled a band overnight. Without a rehearsal, we quickly recorded a handful of songs 100% live for what would become a demo video for the band, in an effort to get gigs. We did mostly cover songs, to showcase the different styles we were capable of, from swing to rock n’ roll. It was all standard material, plus ”Powder Room Mama”. I really felt like I had hit on something, as far as songwriting and musical direction for the band.
In early 2020, I wrote a bunch of songs, and entered a proper studio in Austin, TX. We tracked what would become the bulk of this record. I had been listening to a ton of Rockabilly, new and old, and that influence can certainly be found here along with a variety of other electric roots styles. We ended up with 9 songs , and the record was almost released as a short LP. Then, the pandemic hit.
At that point, I had besome completely engulfed with the wilder side of Hillbilly Boogie, Country Bop, and Rockabilly of the 50’s , and decided to do some home recording. I ended up playing most of the instruments myself, and had some friends record some parts remotely, as we were all on lockdown. Two of those songs from that period of the Summer of 2020 made it onto this collection, and filled out what is now a 12 song record.
It’s been a long road, but we’re all very happy with ”Wanted Man”, and hope that you dig it too!

Boneshakers - Off The Cuff (LP)
€25,00Quick ViewTHE BONESHAKERS stand for female-fronted acoustic Rockabilly combined with classic Rock’n’Roll, Country and Folk, delivered in an exciting and uniquely cool way!

Together with guitarist Schorni Walker (THE SEWER RATS, THE FLICK KNIVES) and double bassist Puck Lensing (FRANTIC FLINTSTONES, JIM JEFFRIES, BARNYARD BALLERS) they quickly made the streets, bars and clubs in Germany dance, shake and sing along to their fantastic live-shows.

Stevens Mack And His In The Groove Boys - Ain’t That Right – An Unconventional Tribute To Sun Records (LP)
€27,00Quick View1-LP (12inch) 140-gram vinyl, black, 16 tracks. Total playing time approx. 41 min.
- Bear Family Records® is pleased to welcome Texas rockabilly ace and ’Wildman’ Mack Stevens to our label!
- Mack Stevens has released more than 50 records in all formats on various labels in many countries during his long career.
- His wild stage show is legendary; he has played his heart out on the stages of nearly every major rockabilly festival in the world.
- Born in 1955, Mack grew up listening to the music of Carl Perkins, Elvis and Johnny Cash.
- Almost logically, now comes a vinyl album dedicated to the Sun label – highly individual, gritty, loud and wild, obscure stuff, no replicated hits!
- Accompanied by his exquisite band from Mack’s second home Argentina, he has put his own pure, hard and distinctive stamp on every song.
- Oldie fans – hands off, this is not for you! This material is for those who want to experience power, pain and passion in every note: Rockabilly in its purest form!
- Original LP pressed on black 140-gram vinyl!
If you trust the rare published resumes, Mack Stevens was born in the mid-fifties in Corsicana, southeast of Dallas, Texas. His musical love is for original rockabilly, as it was produced at that time when he came into the world, especially in Memphis by Sam Phillips for his Sun Records label in his Sun studio.It took a while to Mack Steven’s first own release. In 1993, his debut album came out on Germany’s Eagle Records. Singles, LPs, CDs and even 78s followed for labels in France, Japan and, among others, the USA, where he was able to impress legendary rockabilly producer Ronny Weiser. Ronny released four CDs in the following three years on his Rollin’ Rock label. Mack went on to record for Scana, Part, On The Hill, Hog Maw and his own Freedonia label.Mack Stevens has now recorded more than 500 songs, either rockabilly, hillbilly country or trashy blues. He enthusiastically collects original rockabilly records and had his own radio show, ’In The Groove’. Mack is and remains a purist. A flat note here and there or a playing mistake doesn’t bother him. But he doesn’t like it when guitarists think the rockabilly school started with the Stray Cats.
Mack has been married to an Argentinean since 1998. Since then, he’s been shuttling between the U.S. and South America, where these brutally good recordings were made for his homage to the 1950s ’Sun’ Sound.
Now, one might expect another soft-spoken and trivial album of cover versions of the great Sun hits – but not with Mack at the helm! He knows his way around the Sun Records catalog and has chosen some of the wildest and most obscure numbers for this album and his tough, often brutal and utterly emotional rehashing of the Sun story. It’s wild, it packs a punch, yet exudes the charm of the originals with Mack Stevens’ signature approach.
Wild, authentic – pure dramatic rockabilly with trashy blues touches!
