In May 1956, the Texan label Starday issued a wild rockabilly single by Thumper Jones. Its top side, the kinetic “Rock It”, was primal, uncontrolled and wild. The flip, “How Come It”, was less frenzied but still driving and infectious. Original pressings of the two-sided pounder in either its 45 or 78 form now fetch at least Ј200. This is not your usual rockabilly rarity though. The record’s label credited the songs to a Geo. Jones. Thumper Jones was a pseudonymous George Jones (1931–2013), who was cashing in a hip style: the only time he did so with rockabilly.
This 2007 two-fer from American Beat combines two LPs George Jones and Tammy Wynette recorded as partners in life and music: 1970's We Go Together and 1973’s Let's Build a World Together. Only three years separate these two albums, but it was a period that produced plenty of tumult, much of which made it to the grooves, so they make for a good pair as a CD: within these two albums, it’s possible to trace their love bloom and wilt.
