In Vintage Rock’s second Rockabilly special we count down the 20 best rockabilly albums and list the 40 best proto-rockabilly discs, the songs that helped birth this most electrifying of musical genres. Elsewhere we have features on some of rockabilly’s most seismic names, including Eddie Cochran, Wanda Jackson, Carl Perkins, Robert Gordon, The Collins Kids and Johnny Burnette as well as focusing on some of the genre’s less celebrated artists, from Janis Martin to Warren Smith. We have Classic Album features on Crazy Cavan 'n' The Rhythm Rockers’ debut LP, Crazy Rhythm, the Stray Cats’ Rant n' Rave With The Stray Cats and Johnny Carroll’s Texabilly and we tell the story of the 1970s rockabilly revival.
