About this product
Movie cowboy Gene Autry likely found navigating the complexities of the record business a wee bit more difficult than riding the range and shooting bad guys when he launched Challenge Records in early 1957, but he and his cohorts Joe Johnson, Johnny Thompson, and Dave Burgess managed to amass an impressive array of rock and roll talent at the diskery all the same - as the latest 36-song offering in our 'That'll Flat... Git It!' franchise abundantly illustrates. Naturally, The Champs - the boys that put Challenge on the map with their chart-topping '58 instrumental Tequila - are here with a pair of rockers (vocals, no less) as well as backing their founder, Dave Burgess, on a catchy Maybelle. So are future country stars Bobby Bare with his droll Vampira and Wynn Stewart with a raging Come-On, both originally on Challenge's Jackpot subsidiary. Big Al Downing roars Down On The Farm in front of The Poe Kats, while Huelyn Duvall's five selections include the savage Three Months To Kill. Memphis rocker Kimball Coburn, the somewhat mysterious Kip Tyler, Champs front man Dean Beard, and George Weston check in with stormers, the collection digging deeper for splendid obscurities from Phil Carter, Lee Harris, The Contenders, and The Riptides. There's even room for smooth-piped Jerry Wallace, turning it up a few notches for the romping Good And Bad and With This Ring. Rest assured digging this bountiful set is no challenge to bop to - in fact, you've hit the rocking jackpot!

Ernest Bloch's Suite Hébraïque was the starting point for this program 'This music came as a revelation to us. It's language is overwhelming and tells of the ravages of the twentieth century...The other composers in this program (Ravel, Bloch, Bruch, Prokofiev, Shostakovich) each in their own way experienced the full force of this tormented century and drew inspiration from the most timeless and universal aspects of folk and sacred repertories, the better to respond to the brutality of the age', say violist Arnaud Thorette and pianist Johan Farjot, who devised this program. Johan Farjot has also arranged John Williams's famous Schindler's List theme for viola and cello. An intense and poignant experience, also featuring other superb artists Antoine Pierlot (cello), Pierre Génisson (clarinet), Karine Deshayes (mezzo-soprano), and Sarah and Deborah Nemtanu (violin).

That'll Flat Git It! Vol. 52 Rockabilly & Rock 'n' Roll From The Vaults Of Mar Vel' & Glenn Records Mar Vel' and Glenn Records, labels run by Harry Glenn from 1949 in Hammond, northern Indiana, not far from Chicago, specializing in country and rockabilly. In the 1950s and early '60s, Glenn produced a selection of high quality rockabilly and R'n'R recordings. Among his most famous artists were Jack Bradshaw and Bobby Sisco. For the 52nd edition in our tag based CD series 'That'll Flat... Git It!', producer Nico Feuerbach has compiled the very best tracks from the extensive catalogs of Mar Vel' and Glenn. Our Chicago music expert Bill Dahl wrote the detailed liner notes for the illustrated booklet. We have carefully remastered the historic recordings from the best available sources according to Bear Family standards. Although the town was situated just east of the Illinois state line in Indiana, Hammond's taste in music was well removed from that of nearby Chicago. Hammond served as homebase for a platoon of country and rockabilly performers, and Harry Glenn was right there to document it all on from 1949 on with his feisty Mar Vel' and Glenn labels. His diskery's enduring slogan InchHits of Tomorrow Recorded TodayInch may have been a tad ambitious, but Bear Family's latest entry in it's 'That'll Flat... Git It!' series underscores it's importance as Glenn released more than his share of classic rockabilly and rock and roll. This is raw boned juke joint music at it's finest, served up by local performers working the rough blue collar barrooms of Hammond and Calumet City, Illinois and laying it down in the studio just the way they did every night no frills and plenty of thrills. Jack Bradshaw and Bobby Sisco were Harry's best known performers, both solidly country rooted but obviously adept at a little rocking now and then, and Harry must have harbored high hopes for Ch
