Colonial Records was established in 1951 by Orville Campbell in the city of Chapel Hill, adjacent to the University of North Carolina. From this collegiate environment and beyond Campbell pulled talent to record and release an eclectic mix of pop, bluegrass, comedy and good old rock 'n' roll for his small but prolific record label. The Colonial la-el existed until 1965 scoring several minor hits, spawning the musical careers of several soon-to-be famous musical artists and providing entertainment for a teen aged audience in the Carolinas and beyond.
As it corresponds to the concept of Bear Family's 'That'll Flat Git It!' series, only the rockin'est sides from the Colonial catalog were chosen for this release. And these sides can compete with the best in the genre!
Featured herein is the original version of 'Sittin' In The Balcony' by its author and originator, John D. Loudermilk (here as Johnny Dee.) Please, listen to the original version of the song alongside the later hit version of Eddie Cochran. Could you really tell us which version is the original and which version is the copy? Then there is Wake Up (Little Boy Blue) by the mysterious Franklin Brothers, a recording that is so rare that until recently it was considered non-existent and never appeared in any discography.
These are the stories record collectors dream of! Many more previously uncomped artists are on board here for the first time, such as E.C. Beatty, The Bluenotes, Henry Wil-on, The Goldtones and many more.
