DESCRIPTION:
"If you're an obsessive rockabilly fan, chances are good that you regard Charlie Feathers as one of the great maverick talents of the first era of rock & roll -- and if you're not a rockabilly fan, you've probably never heard of him at all. Charlie Feathers never got within spitting distance of stardom, and his habit of claiming he taught Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Sam Phillips everything they knew didn't help much, but a listen to the man's best music reveals he was one of the singular stylists to come out of the genre -- he could sing with a horny vocal hiccup that would put nearly anyone to shame, but he also handled hard country ballads with a heart-tugging skill and took his honky tonk music into strange and unexpected places few other folks would have ever dared to venture. Wild Side of Life is the first in a series of three collections of rare and unreleased Feathers material from Norton Records." - Mark Deming & allmusic.com
