• • Our LP includes everything there is by this rocker.

• • One of the most distinguished releases in our rockabilly vinyl series!
Vince Maloy? How wild can it get? You think releasing Bill Carter stuff was risky and obscure? (Bill’s
10″ has long sold out.) Let me tell you something, buddy! This is tuff stuff, indeed.
Bear Family Records® comes up with Vince Maloy’s complete recorded output – six singles on six
different labels. And – shortly before the production deadline, an excellent copy of Maloy’s Web
release WEB 1109 Wine Bop Bop / Honey Baby appeared seemingly out of nowhere (OK, after a long
and tedious search undertaken by Nico Feuerbach) – when all hope already seemed in vain. You
have to remember: WEB 1109 Wine Bop Bop / Honey Baby is as scarce as rockabilly 45s get. You
have to remember: WEB 1109 Wine Bop Bop / Honey Baby is an extremely rare and rocking
rockabilly record but was lousily recorded, mastered, and pressed way back when. Think of
Paramount pre-war blues 78 quality. But what the heck – as long as it rocks! And it’s a rocking
mother… Some of the stuff sounds like Vince had constructed his own Karaokebilly-Machine and
sang along from the outhouse. THIS IS WILD!
But best of all – and sometimes it does not get any better: Most known copies have a pressing fault –
a skip! But behold: Bear Family’s copy is as clean as Granny’s Sunday undies and plays without
skipping. So – the release of ‘Vince Maloy: Flying High With Vince Maloy – The Complete Recordings’
(BAF14035) is just for you! It combines all of Vince Maloy’s disguised reworkings of Drinkin’ Wine Spo-De-O-Dee, his Felsted dragster classic, and – once again the best available copy of WEB 1109
Wine Bop Bop / Honey Baby – all remastered for your rockinest pleasure!
But beware: If you consider your rockabilly rebellion yet to come, reconsider! After rocking it up and
rocking the boat, Vince Maloy became Chief of Police to the North Beach Maryland Police
Department. Before that, he had played Vegas for a while and roamed the Eastern Seaboard with his
best buddies, Link Wray and the Raymen – a strong desire for structure and control might have arisen
during these rowdy days of yore.
