The Polecats

Rarities - The Legend & The Truth CD

Previously unissued tracks, demo recordings and rockin' rarities from one of the leading bands of the 1980s Rockabilly revival.

Some of these songs were re-recorded and later versions appeared on Polecats studio albums, whilst others  are heard here for the first time.

With Rockabilly music attracting a huge, young, international following, the major record companies invested in youthful bands that brought new energy and freshness to the genre.

Arista signed the Stray Cats, EMI signed the Jets, Virgin signed The Shakin' Pyramids and Mercury snapped up London 4-piece The Polecats - and with the input of ace producer Dave Edmunds, released on of the best rockabilly albums of the genre with "Polecats Are Go".

Hit singles and TV appearances capitalized on their success, with John I'm Only Dancing, Rockabilly Guy, Marie Celeste and Make A Circuit With Me climbing the charts.
