The Sun Album (I Betcha Gonna Like It) - Released 21/04/2008
The album features 18 songs originally recorded by artists assigned to the Sun Records label.
Whilst some songs were quite well known when they were originally released in the ‘50s and ‘60s, others had been barely heard.
Dave Bartram was the driving force behind the project, ploughing through nearly 10,000 Sun Studios recordings, and narrowing down the list to a couple of dozen to present to the rest of the band, from which the recorded tracks were chosen. The album cover is unusual in that it only shows Dave on the front - however this is a representation of Dave hunting down the tracks and trying to peer through the blinds of the studios as part of his meticulous research. Memphis Recording Service was the original name of the studios, which shared the same building as the Sun Records label.
The first 500 copies of the album were released with a DVD, which featured interviews with the band at the recording studios in Wales, and also with Dave Bartram and Danny Willson at Sun Studio, Memphis, Tennessee.
