FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Bear Family Records Announces  That'll Flat Git It! Vol. 50: Rockabilly & Rock 'n' Roll From The Vaults Of Columbia & Epic Records

Available on CD on June 6! Bear Family Records announces its fifth release dedicated to the Columbia label in the much-loved That'll Flat Git It! rockabilly CD series, out on June 6.  Classic rockers by the Collins Kids, Johnny Horton and Carl Perkins are joined by lesser-known recordings featuring Dick Lory, Larry Hart and Dick Glasser, and rock favorites by country stars such as The Maddox Brothers & Rose and Carl Butler.  The CD features 30 tracks in a Digipak with a 36-page booklet, and includes carefully remastered '50s classics, detailed liner notes, discographical information, and illustrations and photos. The bottomless vaults of Columbia Records have contributed spectacularly to Bear Family's That'll Flat...Git It! series.  This latest deep dive into Columbia's voluminous rockabilly and rock and roll archive uncovers another 30 savage sides (a handful pulled from its Epic and OKeh sister labels), including revered classics from Johnny Horton ("Lover's Rock," "The Wild One"), The Collins Kids ("The Rockaway Rock," "Heartbeat"), Marty Robbins ("Long Tall Sally"), Carl Perkins ("Pointed Toe Shoes"), and Link Wray ("Raw-Hide," as well as a rare vocal turn on "Ain't That Lovin' You Baby").  But there are plenty of lesser-known gems aboard this viciously rocking disc too - Dick Lory's "Wild-Blooded Woman," Larry Hart's "A-Looka-A Looka," Dick Glasser's "Crazy Alligator," and Bernie Nee's "Lend Me Your Comb" (the same charmer that Carl Perkins cut for Sun) just for starters. Charlie Adams, Johnny Bond, Little Jimmy Dickens, Lefty Frizzell, The Maddox Brothers & Rose, and Carl Butler illustrate the indelible impact that country music had on the fast-developing rockabilly idiom during the mid-'50s (Mel Tillis and Bill Phillips were about to embrace country stardom), while Commonwealth Jones (actually Ronnie Dawson), Bobby Lord, and Rick Tucker and The Picks represent the younger generation.  Under the savvy stewardship of A&R chief Don Law, Columbia's massive country catalog contained plenty of vicious rockabilly. Like its storied predecessors, this Columbia compilation really delivers the goods!
