  • Good Rocker From 1958

    From Bruce@21:1/5 to All on Thu Nov 7 16:25:23 2024
    I am currently listing a ton of old boot 45's and I came across this one
    which I never heard of before. Al Casey on Highland from 1959. It's an
    Eddie Cochran style song. Al doesn't sound like Eddie, but the music and
    the arrangement sounds like Eddie's style.

    "This is an awfully long record," I said to myself. "Why isn't it over
    yet?"
    I looked at the video and it was at 1:50. That's how boring I found it.

    The guitar break was the best part of it. It doesn't sound anything
    like "Summertime Blues" or "Come On Everybody" or any of the other few
    Eddie Cochran records I like.

    No wonder it was booted. I am doing really well with these boots and
    other 45's from the 70s and 80s. I got $20 for this Al Casey.

    If you want to see what kind of things they are, this link has the most
    recent 250 listings on the first page.

    No, only some real dope would do that.

    In 2009 I acquired all tracks from this Al Casey 32-track Bear Family CD https://www.discogs.com/release/6646777-Al-Casey-A-Man-For-All-Sessions
    "(Got The) Teen-Age Blues" is track #11 (1958)

    The images link (top left) of this Discogs page has every page from the
    cd's substantial accompanying booklet, including a 4th to last image
    that shows the year for each track: https://www.discogs.com/release/6646777-Al-Casey-A-Man-For-All-Sessions/image/SW1hZ2U6MTAyMDkzMDE2
    Yes, some/many tracks were originally credited on 45rpm to another
    artist (with Al Casey being the uncredited lead guitarist).

    I said 1959 in the post, but 1958 is correct.
