Darrel Higham

A Tribute To Johnny and Dorsey Burnette

(Foottapping Records)




Can anyone reading these words be unfamiliar with the Burnette brothers and their thrones in the rockabilly pantheon? World-circling star Darrel has now done with the famed pair's canon what Eddie Clendening recently accomplished with salad days Elvis: created a work that at once cherishes and vivifies with the ardor of a fan, one declaring talents of his own. Many revisit these immortal songs, but Darrel revels in their flammable essence.

Recommended: "Sweet Love On My Mind," "Lonesome Train," "Rockbilly Boogie," "Your Baby lue Eyes," "Rock Therapy," "Honey Hush," "Lonesome Tears In My Eyes," "Drinkin' Wine Spo-Dee-O-Dee," "All By Myself," "Train Kept A-Rollin'," "Tear It Up," "Please Don't Leave Me"
