Rockabilly Monthly magazine, in association with Golly Gee Records and Hum Tone Records, have released a 27-track CD from "some of today's hottest talent," and it would be difficult for anyone to refute this statement. I have reviewed other CD's from the Golly Gee Records label, including releases from some of the groups or individuals on this CD, but this CD also encompasses groups that are not purely California or necessarily from the Golly Gee record label stable.

What we have here are 27 songs performed by about 16 groups or individuals, and they include Rip Carson, rockabilly prodigy Eddie Clendenning, Rockin' Ryan and the Real Goners, Hot Rod Lincoln, The Rumblejetts, Jerry King and the Rivertown Ramblers, The Spinouts, Chad Thomas and the Crazy Kings, Billy and the Bullets, Peter and the Wolves, and several others.

I do not know how much exactly this CD sells for, but I'm willing to bet that it's a pretty good "bang for the buck," considering the 27 songs and many groups that are represented here, and it is quite a good collection of up-tempo contemporary rockabilly.

Orlando Rios, who I believe is the person behind Rockabilly Monthly, and Mel Spinella of Golly Gee Records, are the co-producers of this CD.
