Description

UK collection. Born in Keiser, Arkansas in 1938, Narvel Felts began beating out time on a sadly worn out Gene Autry guitar whilst picking cotton to earn extra pocket money. His family moved to Missouri, when he was 14 and the sounds of rural Country music and rockabilly were heard regularly on radio and T. V. and at local dance halls. Aged 17, Narvel entered a talent contest and was soon beaming out his music weekly on local radio. Many of the original studio tapes have miraculously survived from 1956 and several of these gems can be heard on this collection. Narvel then tried his luck with Sam Phillips at Sun Records laying down two sessions in early 1957 but there would be no yellow label 45's for Narvel and he was finally offered a contract with Mercury in 1957. Narvel stayed with Mercury for a year having four singles released and then moved to Pink Records, which was part of Hi in Memphis, where Narvel would taste his first hit record - 'Three Thousand Miles'. Narvel would continue to record and play shows throughout the 1960s and in 1973 he signed with Cinnamon Records and the hits began to roll in. Narvel would score hit after hit with songs such as 'Drift Away'. 'All In The Name Of Love', 'When Your Good Love Was Mine', 'Funny How Time Slips Away' and his number one classic - 'Reconsider Me'. Moving into the 1980s and the European Rockabilly revival came calling and Narvel was persuaded to turn back the years and reprise his early recordings. To his amazement, he was received ecstatically and returned many times to play concerts throughout Europe. This new Stomper Time CD collects together for the first time, the best of Narvel's rocking recordings from over the years and represents a great tribute to a fine artist, who is approaching 60 years in show business. Narvel has actually had 69 Top 40 hits and this CD will show you why.
