Wildcat Tamer

Something of a mystery figure, ALLEN RATHEL BUNN, aka ALDEN BUNN, aka TARHEEL SLIM, who also recorded as a member of The Selah Singers, The Four Barons, The Jubilators, The Larks, The Wheels and The Lovers (among countless more), left behind an extraordinary legacy of recorded work.

Although (as Tarheel Slim) he perhaps remains best known for the blistering 'Wildcat Tamer' / 'Number 9 Train', one of the all-time great double-sided Rockabilly 45s, he was one of the most versatile and prolific artists of his era, operating variously as singer, guitarist, bandleader and songwriter, across virtually the entire musical spectrum, touching on Gospel, Blues, DooWop, R&B, Rockabilly, Soul and Pop.

This compilation presents a unique aural resume of his career between 1950-62 and includes all his major commercial successes, notably The Larks' 'Eyesight To The Blind' and 'Little Side Car', The Lovers' 'Darling It's Wonderful', and his own 'It's Too Late', recorded with his wife, Little Ann.

This is the first comprehensive career overview of Bunn's work and some half-dozen of these sides have never previously appeared on CD.
