DEKE DICKERSON
: Number One Hit Records & More Million Sellers
Two CD set from the vaults of HIGHTONE RECORDS released at MID-PRICE.
DEKE DICKERSON’S expertise as a guitarist began to evolve into the definitive DICKERSON style,part Rockabilly, part Surf and Rock n’ Roll, with a strong dash of the ROY NICHOLS jazzy style of Country guitar.
In 1998, with his new band the ECCO-FONICS and armed with his trademark custom double neck Mosrite guitar, he recorded his first album ‘Number One Hit Record’ which featured Nevada rockabilly legend LARRY COLLINS and CLAUDE TRENIER of the legendary R n’B greats the TRENIERS.
More Million Sellers released a year later, embraces Honkey Tonk Country, Surf, Rockabilly, Western Swing, early sixties Pop, and Doo-Wop. Albums like these are the reasons Roots music thrives and survives.
