I have not found a Ramblin' James video from this years Rockabilly Rave on the net so far.  Here is one I did way back in 2004. Backed by The Fly-Rite Trio.

I have a fondness for female fuelled rockabilly. Mary Ann has a cool style to her vocal delivery and her backing band 'The Tri-Tones' sure know how to compliment her. I wish I had filmed more. Check out their CD single (below)

Charlie puts country music/hillbilly on the back burner and gets back to what he is really great at...Rockabilly.

This was a nice surprise and a very good band to end four days of great music. Doghouse Sam and the Magnatones hail from Belgium and their music is the Blues. Not the fake 1960's kind this band is pure class. Check them out here...
