Deaddog's doo-wop rarities


I just got a shipment of fantastic doo-wop and swing rarities from Deaddog music, a microlabel bringing back old 78s and singles. My favorite? Steve Gibson and the Red Caps "You're Driving Me Crazy." I discovered Steve Gibson about eight years ago when his "Boogie Woogie on a Saturday Night" was briefly released (and quickly deleted). I have one other disk of his stuff, but most of his vast catalog of 78s is lost to history. The Deaddog disc has got some awesome stuff on it. I can't stop listening to the Boogie Woogie cover of "San Antonio Rose."
