- Not unless you want to include everyone who ever recorded a vaguely-rockabilly-sounding song in their life, which would then include everyone from Alice Cooper to George Michael. wikipediatrix 17:10, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
Darrell Higham--belong on the list? He's a devotee of Billy Cochran, and two of his 15+ solo albums, Cochran Connections, vols. 1 and 2, pay tribute to Billy Cochran. He also co-authored Cochran's biography, Don't Forget Me - The Eddie Cochran Story. He has also appeared on a further 50 plus albums, working with a number of American and British rock 'n' roll and rockabilly legends as a studio musician. His latest CD is Kat Men featuring himself and Slim Jim Phantom. Very much rockabilly. It drew the following comments from radio station Motorbilly: "This will undoubtedly please the hard core STRAY CATS fans as the sound is very reminiscent of the 80’s trio’s progressive rockabilly revival style and all you modern day rockabilly devotees will dig the traditional flavour provided by Darrel’s fantastic guitar work and dusky, Cochran-like vocals. Kat Men is a real modern day rockabilly treat." http://www.motorbilly.com/--9/12/06 comments.
I reorganized and expanded the list. Now performers are listed by time period and I've mad a separate heading for artists who are consideredd "psychobilly." this should help give some form to what was just a grab-bag list.Kingandrew 02:52, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
