Guest Liannebell Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Man this tune is rare. I couldn't even find a youtube refrence, till this year. Now I think the boot has ,either, 1.heighten its awarness or 2 cheapened it's rareaty. What yawl think?
Soulsides Posted April 18, 2019 Posted April 18, 2019 Well,if its rare its rare..why would a bootleg cheapen that?..It's always gonna be the original that any serious collector will want at the end of the day . 45's..the crack cocaine of record collecting, hehe.. 10 hours ago, Liannebell said: Now I think the boot has ,either, 1.heighten its awarness or 2 cheapened it's rareaty.

Guest Liannebell Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 But what a DARK TUNE EH ! Any idea where it was recorded. It's sounds like a deep south recording. I love a wrist slasher, as a pal of mine said " it's such a foot dragger it would take half an hour to get to the bar" 13 hours ago, Soulsides said: Well,if its rare its rare..why would a bootleg cheapen that?..It's always gonna be the original that any serious collector will want at the end of the day . 45's..the crack cocaine of record collecting, hehe..
Joesoap Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) Can see it might have some curiosity value but it's a terrible record. Edited April 19, 2019 by JoeSoap 1

Geeselad Posted April 22, 2019 Posted April 22, 2019 Interesting tune, unusual production and very atmospherric, could image this getting plays.even if he does sound like elvis!

Blackpoolsoul Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 He didn't look like Elvis https://www.rockabilly.nl/references/messages/chuck_wiley.htm
Guest Posted April 29, 2019 Posted April 29, 2019 (edited) Sounds like Elvis backed by Ravi Shankar. A proper industrial strength wrist slasher. Edited April 29, 2019 by Guest
