Don't think I'd go quite as far as "killer" but yeah,its pretty cool

One of the many RAB custom pressings that came out around that
time,this one presented on his own "Ralph Johnson" label

I have a few other tracks by him which don't seem to have been
officially released,the best of which is the decent RAB "My Baby's
Real Gone"

What I don't get is how Terry Gordon can leave this off his site. He
claimed to me that it wasn't rockabilly, that it was country. I told
him that rockabilly collectors pay like $300 for a copy, and that he
lists loads of records that are much less rock and roll than this one.
But he wouldn't add it to the site.

He's got so much schlocky half assed pop rockers and country styled
things on the site that I think he's crazy not to include this gem.

Of course it belongs on the site. It is certainly just as worthy of
inclusion as "My Baby's Real Gone" which Gordon does list

Gem my ass. It's 100% 'billy and not a very good 'billy at that.
