RILEY, BILLY LEE - Red Hot (10")

CHARLY RECORDS PRESENTS SUN ROCKABILLY LEGENDS SERIES VOLUME 4 - BILLY LEE RILEY ED HOT' RELEASED ON LIMITED EDITION 10" RED VINYL. Billy Lee Riley was one of the wildest of the rockabilly wild men. A multi-instrumentalist and songwriter he was one of Sun Records' most significant signings. Blessed with a unique talent, possessed of rugged good looks and seemingly finding himself in the right place at the right time, Billy Lee Riley surprisingly failed to find the fame and fortune he deserved. Riley has always been held in high regard by rockabilly fans. His backing band, The Little Green Men, comprised the cream of Sun's session men, including Jerry Lee Lewis on piano. 'Flying Saucers Rock And Roll' and 'Red Hot' are two undisputed landmark recordings in rockabilly and lead each side of this excellent collection. The 10 tracks have been newly-re-mastered from the original tapes and pressed on audiophile quality 10-inch vinyl. First 1,000 copies will be on limited edition red vinyl and feature definitive career-spanning sleeve notes by Adam Komorowski. The Sun Rockabilly Legends Series is produced by Sun Entertainment Corporation president John A. Singleton and Charly Records founder Jean-Luc Young.
