    Well it's a track listing from a box set called Rockabilly Rules - how many of them do you play regularly, which work best for you?

    yes it is a list from a boxset sory i should have stated.

    but as stated before i dont really know anything about it but im supporting a few artists on a rockabilly weekend soon so im currently listening and studying to as much as i can to try and get a grasp of some of it.

    as soon as i have studied it a bit il put together a list as to what i picked out and what il be inclined to play.

    im in the same boat as the original poster so i picked out a set that might be worth him listening to.

    I'm a recent convert to rockabilly and, indeed, new rock and roll bands. I did a wedding with a rockabilly/rock & roll band just the other week and they were totally brilliant. There's also a specialised local radio show which I try to catch every week. A real education!

    Oh and those lists provided look pretty good to me. And as stated Definitely NO SHOWADDYWADDY. You'll just look like a complete You could play the originals of some they covered tho'.

    Again dependant on the crowd, you could try dropping in a few by the Baseballs

    Some of their songs fit nicely into various sets, not just this one. Easy to drop in early doors, when you're on background duties.
    Excalibur. Older than the average DJ.
