Informationen zum Artikel: On the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the musical career of Willie Lewis, I´m proud to introduce ya´ll to this hot little piece of musical history. Yep, that's right, it´s been 25 years since Willie Lewis recorded his very first songs. Since his first recordings, he and his "Baby" - the Rock-a-Billy Record Company- have went on to became legendary the world over. Through the years he has recorded under many different names and with numerous different bands. This album will give ya´ll a very small look inside the many ways that he has performed his own unique style of "down home" Rockabilly, and country music over the years with each of these bands. Although these recordings are all previously unissued, you'll hear some of the best tracks he has ever made. A few of the titles are well known through different versions of the songs that he has recorded and issued with other bands, but they are all previously unissued in these performances. All of the songs you will hear on this CD, recorded with The Tennessee Boys, The Original Stablemen, The Spuddnicks, The Bop-A-Whiles or The Brenver Brothers may all have a different feeling or "style" for the music that is being performed, but they are all dictated by the unique, rockin´ heart-beat of the one and only Willie Lewis. So please put your rockin' shoes on and get ready to "shake, rattle & roll" while taking a wild, crazy rockin' trip along with Willie "The King Cat" Lewis into the "heart" of Bopland.
