Next Tuesday Rhino Records will release a four CD box set titled Rockin' Bones: `50s Punk & Rockabilly. The box set will be a send up to "the legion of musicians who cranked up the beat, turned up the twang, set the echo to 11 and got real, real gone" collecting 101 rockabilly tracks from 1954 to 1969. Artists as prominent as Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash will be presented alongside more underground favorites like Hazil Adkins. Of course the "punk" label is often not connected with the era, but Rhino seems to be highlighting both acts that inspired the later punk era and held true to that spirit.
