Call this one "Charlie Feathers Unplugged" if you want to, but what we have here is a bushelbasket of unissued acoustic demos from 1958 to 1973 from the King of Rockabilly. It doesn"t much matter when Feathers cut something as long as he was into it when the tape was rollin" and here"s 23 tracks that bear that simple fact out. It also doesn"t seem to matter much if Feathers wrote the tune or not, because everything he puts his pipes to -- along with his consummate arranging talents -- stamps it with the crazed redneck mark of hizzown personality. Electric guitar fleshes out a couple of tracks here and there, but in the main it"s pure, unvarnished Charlie Feathers and that"s worth more than the next dozen hat hunk albums that come down the pike. ~ Cub Koda, All Music Guide
