As part of Rounder’s New American Series, Danny and Johnny laid down 11 great tracks proving that rockabilly was not dead, but it was also not confined to a nostalgia act. The recording and mix quality is beautiful, Danny can be heard well and plays great. Danny did the arrangements as well. Johnny and Danny should have made more records like this. Recommended.
After the “Elvismania” year, in 1985, I signed a record deal with Rounder Records on the American music series. The title “Reaction”, again featuring Danny Gatton, with nearly all selections written by me was praised by many critics as one of the best Rockabilly/Roots Rock records ever recorded. Billboard magazine and Cashbox magazine gave “Reaction” very high marks as well. Both “Uptown” and “Reaction” are now in the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville.
I’ve had this LP sealed for a long time, finally chose to break the cello and rip to share since it is so long out of print and hard to find rarity due to Danny Gatton playing on it. Hope you enjoy it!
