RCS DISCOGRAPHY WE THANK YOU AGAIN!

We are so lucky to have a great resource like RCS discography on the Internet. This volunteer project is a real labor of love and ROCKIN COUNTRY STYLE DISCOGRAPHY WAS PROBABLY THE FIRST SITE ON THE INTERNET TO HAVE A PAGE for me, WES BRYAN, which got us interested and then hooked. Since we're going to talk about Sun records and then Judd records a bit this is a good place to mention how grateful we are to have RCS!

We're talking here about early Rock and Roll - Rockabilly- Rockin Country Style and one of the most fascinating things about that era was that it was the time of small regional labels. So using the LABEL search feature we can go right to them and see who they were recording, hear sound samples, get profiles and pictures in some cases.

Now folks, RCS can't take donations as things are set up, but you can always express your appreciation in other ways. Send them a note in the U.S. mail or an e-mail ! Or get involved if you have some records you are willing to share for a time so that more clips can be uploaded! The volunteer team there headed up by Terry Gordon has done a great job of supplying music clips as well as photos of actual records and covers.

Using the GEOGRAPHICAL search is a fascinating way to see what SMALL LABELS existed and who recorded on them. Elvis Presley and so many others walked into Sun Records in Memphis to produce a recording - vanity or low budget. Other Rockabilly and Country artists to be were doing so all over America in smaller towns and markets. Go to the state and the town/label and give a listen to a local hopeful giving it their all! You can also use the RCS LABEL search to see who was recording at Sun besides Elvis and get a feel for the body of work from a particular studio.
