Keeping in line with our Rockabilly, Psychobilly and Surf music obsessions I would like to introduce a site called Hank Williams Sr. Listings.
Run by a good fella from Norway ( Svein Martin Pedersen) he has a great page lay out and has listings of songs, rare photos and advertisements as well as extensive histories and rare radio recordings of all the artists featured on his site.
Some of the artists featured besides Hank Williams Sr: Buddy Holly, Delbert Barker, Maddox Brothers and Rose ( one of my fav’s) and a really great Hall of Fame featuring by category :
The Hillbilly/Country & Western Hall of
Fame
The Cajun/Zydeco/Swamp/Tex-Mex Hall of Fame
The Rockabilly/Rock’n Roll Hall of Fame
Thanks to people like Svein for keeping this music alive as well as having that information out there for future generations to be able to learn about this music and know the histories!
I had contacted Svein when I was trying to find some of the lyrics from a Maddox Brothers and Rose song due to the MP3 I had coming from an old scratchy record and the lyrics on parts were a bit muddled. Svein had 3 different copies of the same song in different versions including a very rare radio release!! Thanks Svein for putting your site out there for all of us to enjoy and keep up the great work.
Anyone with any kind of questions regarding any of the music featured on the site drop Svein a line he answers back and you’ll learn alot more than you might have thought you knew.
