Elvis didn't invent rockabilly any more than Louis Armstrong invented jazz or Hank Williams invented honky-tonk country music, but like them his charisma and innate showmanship allowed him to be the catalyst that introduced a previously unaware general public to a musical style that had been fermenting for several years. This series from Acrobat Records has been devised to reveal the very sounds, both hits and obscurities, which served to fuel the Big Bang that occurred at Sam Phillips? Sun Studio in 1954-55 and will take us year-by-year to the birth of rockabilly and its acceptance by the mainstream in 1955 when Elvis was sold to RCA Victor and every label, both major and independent, scrambled to find their own local answer to the Presley phenomenon.
