Delbert Barker - Kentucky Hillbilly Rockabilly Man

This is quite an unusual release in that Delbert Barker was mainly a cover artist. Most cover albums of the 50s were quite poor and were released on inferior vinyl pressings through Mom & Pop stores, garages and supermarkets. Delbert Barker was an exception - he had a fine voice and his records sounded good. Originally from Kentucky, he recorded a huge number of country covers, especially Hank Williams songs. By 1956 Delbert was recording straight rockabilly, trying to catch a bit of the action generated by Carl Perkins. Tracks:1. NO GOOD - ROBIN HOOD2. NO HELP WANTED3. BLUE SUEDE SHOES4.
