Bob Dylan One of the greatest figures of the 20th century, Bob Dylan helped shape the sound and form of popular music in the rock & roll era. Dylan emerged from the Greenwich Village folk scene in the early 1960s, earning a reputation as a perceptive, powerful songwriter, equally capable of penning a protest anthem or a romantic love song. His flair for impressionistic, stream-of-conscious lyrics marked a shift within folk music, an evolution Dylan also introduced to rock & roll when he picked up an electric guitar in 1965. Over the course of 18 months, he released Bringing It All Back Home, Highway 61 Revisited and Blonde on Blonde, a trio of records that broadened the vocabulary of rock & roll, placing Dylan at the cutting edge of popular culture. Although he subsequently stepped away from the zeitgeist, his restless, occasionally messy work of the '70s and the '80s expanded his formidable songbook through a combination of classic albums (Blood on the Tracks) and intriguing detours (Empire Burlesque).

Johnny Burnette was at the heart of the Rock 'N' Roll revolution for ten years, both with his brother Dorsey as part of the Rock 'N' Roll Trio-considered by many the greatest rockabilly group of all time - & as a hit-making recording artist on his own. Given Johnny's importance, you wouldn't really want any other label but Bear Family to release the definitive retrospective on 9 CDs, is everything Johnny ever recorded. Not just released-recorded! That means all of his Rock 'N' Roll Trio recordings, classics like 'Train Kept A-Rollin', 'Lonesome Train (on a Lonesome Track', 'Rock Therapy', 'Honey Hush', & 'Tear It Up', his recordings for Imperial & Freedom/Liberty (complete for the first time), where he notched his hits 'Dreamin', 'You're Sixteen', and many more!
