Bobcat: A Twin Guitar Instro!

Here's the first record I've seen on Trophy besides Bill Taylor & The Cyclones. This cut called "Bobcat" is a fantastic twin guitar western swing instrumental. It is fantastic and it really reminds of Jimmy Rivers & The Cherokees. Take it for a spin!

Intoxica!

This is one of the harder Revel's records to find. I seem to only ever turn up "Church Key", which is a great instrumental. Dig this exotic tune called "Intoxica!"

Puddle Jumper.....

Junked this 3 months ago. "Puddle Jumper" is a great rockabilly/R&B tittyshaker instro. Great guitar and sax give it that greasy sound. I dropped the needle on it and I knew I had to have it. Ember is a hard label for me to turn up. I usually only see the The Silhouettes or The Five Satins, with that being said I'm gonna pick up anything out of the ordinary. I don't have any information on Davey Dee and The Mudcats, so if any of you readers and listeners have any then please send it my way. Give this a spin. DIG!

The Original Big Guitar!

I acquired this from a friend of mine in the last few months. I believe this is the original version of "Big Guitar", like Owen Bradley's. I like this version better. I'm not sure if this record is hard to find but I've never come across one in wild. Just another great record on the DOT label. Take a listen!

Another "Uncle Buck" Production......The Dawn Capri's

Produced by Ron "Uncle Buck" Lipe, the Marlo label is his follow up to the famous Ron-Mar label. The Marlo label was his all around label and anybody that had some money could cut a record. The label was based out of Belleville, IL. One of the rarest records on the label is Lee McBride's-Confusin'. The label of the record itself went through different variations. This record "Going Home" by Dawn Capri's is a surfy R&B instrumental, not what I expected when I was given this record. I expected more of garage psych sound with the title of the group. The flip is a more hokey instrumental titled "Haunted House". The record is a RITE press and I have dated it to 1963. Hope ya'll think its as cool as I do.

A Wild Instro From......Roy Buchanan!

I acquired this killer instrumental in a recent trade. "Mule Train Stomp" is a fantastic garage rockabilly cut. Roy Buchanan is more widely known as a blues guitar slinger. He made his recording debut with Dale Hawkins on Checker in 1958 which he would later leave to play bass with Ronnie Hawkins, his cousins band. To me this record sounds like it is early 60's. The publishing is Walt Disney Music, I wonder if this song was ever used in any Walt Disney films?
