Bobcat: A Twin Guitar Instro!

Bobcat

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!

Country Bop On ABC-PARAMOUNT

(I've Got) The Texas Blues

Found this one lying around in a box I've had for years. This is a pretty good uptempo country bop/western swing record on ABC-PARAMOUNT. I don't really see too much country music on the label other than George Hamilton. I was suprised to hear it be so good. Take a listen!

Mega RARE! I just first saw this sleeve in a friends collection about a week or so ago. I was amazed. I know very little about Penny West nor can I find any other information on her. At least now having a scan of the sleeve we have a picture of her and her band. 

Penny West & Lucky Penny Trio

Lonesome Blues

Here's one some people are probably not familiar with, Penny West & Lucky Penny Trio on Ozark Records out of St. Louis, MO. I first knew her track "Needle In A Haystack" than I found this one. Probably recorded sometime around 1956, this is her first release on the label. "Needle In A Haystack" is a RCA custom, but I'm not sure about this one. Rockin' Country Style shows a scan for this sleeve. Her 2nd release also came with a sleeve which I recently saw in a friends collection. I'm looking for both of these sleeves if anybody has one they went to get rid of. This track is a great eerie country ballad. I really like the guitar work on this song. Hope ya'll dig this one!
