The Return Of Friday Night Is Rockabilly Night 82


They don't make 'em like this any more. I mean, listen to it. Sounds like it was recorded in a shed in five minutes round one mic on a used tape. Frenetic stuff from Arizona rockabilly man Loy Clingman (and they don't name them like that any more either. At least, not round here they don't- I can't speak with any real authority about modern naming habits in Arizona). Made all the way back in 1958.

Belting stuff. What inspired Mr and Mrs Clingman to name their son Loy?

Walter said...

I love that raw and mean stuff. Thx Adam

Walter said...

@George: Loy is the short form of Eloy, what means 'the chosen one'

Swiss Adam said...

Eloy- now there's a name.

George said...

Fantastic. Eloy is even better than Loy. Thanks Walter.
