The \u003cem\u003eRock 'n' Roll Trio\u003c\/em\u003e was the legendary group that during 1955-57 recorded 2 albums' worth of material. Their pioneer rockabilly \/ rhythm 'n' blues music has been highly influential on bands like The Yardbirds, Johnny Kid and the Pirates, and The Downliners Sect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe band consisted of the two \u003cstrong\u003eBurnette\u003c\/strong\u003e brothers, Johnny and Dorsey, and their friend, lead guitarist Paul Burlison. Both brothers wrote a lot of great songs, some of which were hits for acts like Ricky Nelson.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTheir first album, simply called '\u003cem\u003eThe Rock 'n' Roll Trio\u003c\/em\u003e', was released as a 10-inch LP on Coral Records in early 1957. The album caused considerable excitement among rockabilly fans but was soon deleted. The album curiously did not include their 1956 single 'Tear It Up', which soon became a real collector's item.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1966, the album was re-released on the Ace of Hearts label, at a time when the trio had been disbanded for years. Singer Johnny Burnette had died in a drowning accident in 1964. Their material was a mixture of Burnette originals and tunes borrowed from other rock 'n' roll pioneers like Fats Domino and Joe Turner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe first album opens with the great rocker '\u003cem\u003eHoney Hush\u003c\/em\u003e' with the great distorted guitar riff. More rockers of the same type follow; the best of which are 'All By Myself', 'The Train Kept a Rollin'', and 'Drinkin' Wine Spo-Dee-O Dee, Drinking'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA few Buddy Holly-type ballads can also be found - 'I Just Found Out' and 'I Love You So', a little bit of country on 'Lonesome Train', and sheer blues on 'Chains of Love'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTheir second album, called '\u003cem\u003eTear It Up\u003c\/em\u003e', released after their split, shows a greater variety of styles. Highlights are the rocking single track 'Tear It Up', 'You're Undecided', and 'Midnight Train' - all Burnette originals. The playing and singing are terrific, and overall there's a lot of energy in these recordings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"No Label","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50439048790347,"sku":"295812","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/1261dc40-37f5-4d83-80b8-5ac96adcb8ed_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726950630"},{"product_id":"and-more-kings-of-rockabilly","title":"And More Kings Of Rockabilly","description":"\u003cp\u003ejohnny burnette made some of the most important of all rockabilly music with his rock n roll trio in the mid 1950s, his best songs are complemented here by the other major stars of the form.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"No Label","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50449367695691,"sku":"313345","price":5.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/test_e38bb505_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1732272017"},{"product_id":"the-a-sides-1955-1962","title":"The A-Sides 1955-1962","description":"\u003cp\u003eBrought together for the first time on one CD is a collection of Johnny Burnette's A sides from his beginnings with his brother Dorsey and the Rock \u0026amp; Roll Trio, through to solo sides for Freedom, Liberty and Chancellor labels.
