Label Charly Records - CR 30172

Sleeve Design: Starshine Graphics

  

Notes:  In thi scorner weighing in at 300 lbs. and standing an impressive 6 foot 7 inches is the biggest voice in rockabilly. A downhome boy who has an estimated repertoire of over 6500 songs Sleepy sings his heart out on every one of them. Playing his boogie woogie rhythms and stomping around it's alway a good time when Sleepy comes to the party. He's been around since the dawn of rockabilly, but never got the attention of his other Sun Records brethern. Worth looking up for those of use who enjoy a good honky tonk Saturday night any time of the week. The cover art has Sleepy perched upon the hood of a fine looking automobile and it appears he's busy singing up into the heavens. Keep 'em coming Sleepy, we'll always be here to listen.
