Not a retro character like Shakin' Stevens but a genuine fifties rockabilly cat. Eko was producer Gene Parsons' Chicago label. Six months later distributed by King (reissued on Ace cd King Rockabilly). His career was finally boosted two decades later when European rockabilly collectors rediscovered this King gem, opening up the comeback gates for someone who never got anywhere in the first place.
