Tessy CD 2020 Dan Cash and Highway Patrol: In Memory of Dan Cash

This CD is something very special. It's not printed for business use (no number and label on it). Only 300 copys pressed in benefit and memory of Dan Cash. He passed away with "ALS" in April 2022, age 50. All benefits go to the family to repay his funeral and all not needed money went to an ALS foundation. If any CDs will be left till November I'm allowed to sell them wholesale, too.

You find all good sounded tracks he ever recorded. Non of them are previous released. There are 2 Versions of Honky tonk Heartache, one is a Duett with Sandy Wild (my personal favourite, there's also a YT Video).

All feat. Mark Twang on Leadguitar, some with Grischa on bass.

My favourite: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMrtrNbgP40

*Tessy CD 2019 Mark Twang Trio: This ain't the time

(Neo-) Rockabilly recorded live in the Studio all together in 1 day.

Straight pure Rockabilly without any technical tricks.

Lead singer & guitar Mark Twang more well known on guitar for Sandy Wild, Dave Philips, Heavy Teddies or Dukes of Tijuna; Marcus Lange on bass (as on Haunted Rhythm, again also Cover design and Promo Video) and Raphael Lindauer on drums

(+ Paddy Evans, the Dukes singer backing vocals)

Promo Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOZSdMEVEd4

*Tessy CD 2018 Haunted Rhythm: Bop like never before

New group of well known guys from the rockin' scene with 20 fantastic tracks (8 self penned, others not often covered). Sounds like a Teddyboy / Neorockabilly Band with slap tries to sound authentic. The result is there fantastic "own" sound. Love it myself very much.

Feat.: Martin Manneck: vocal (Ex Jailbirds Singer)

Mario Oehlmann: guitar (his 2nd band beside Fogy Mountain Rockers)

Jack Ebbers: drums (from late 80s Neorockabilly band The Boptails)

Marcus Lange: bass and responsible for the great Artwork and our Promo Video  (plays also with Mark Twang Trio):

1958/59 mainstream R'n'R sound, mix from Northern Band Style, Jive, Swing with little parts of rocking white R&B, Jazz, Boogie - 12 self penned tracks (sax, piano + usual quartett with female slap)

*Tessy CD 208 The Cadcatz Rockabilly Trio: Story of Remembers

(5 Tracks, slimcase -- trades as 1/2 CD)

was planned as an 45 exclusive for the Remembers Rock'n'Roll Club to celebrate 31 years with 2 new self penned songs from the Cadcatz (sure they decided it, while celebrating 30 years together).

After all was said and done the Club found out, that most members don't have a record player anymore and prefered a CD Single.

As I hate 2 track CD singles, I persuaded the band to look in their archives for some unreleased tracks and they found 3 great Live recordings from the 90s that was never planned to issue.  So here you have the chance to hear them live on CD for the very first time!

If you're not familiar with the band, they started as Cadcatz Sun Quartett and played at the big munich festival at Theaterfabrik in 1986, having a self released EP in 1989 with 2 tracks also re-released on the great Rockhouse Neo Rockabillly Story series (LP/CD), before signed to Tessy Records. Also had later releases on Part and Cherokee records.
