"There have been many rockabilly compilations over the decades but probably not on this scale: 375 tracks spread over 12 discs which pretty much cover the spectrum of what can safely be considered the last century's first hipmusical movement ... This set provides a hot document of its first thrust, balancing long-acknowledged rockabilly royalty ... with the obscurities, curios, one-off wonders and rarities that will attract any diehards (if they can stomach wrongly-spelled names like "Curly" Jim, instead of "Curley", or even "Ray" Orbison) ... Undoubtedly value for money, rockabilly virgins should dive in for the ride of their lives".
