Ersel Hickey was born 75 years ago today



The great Ersel Hickey would have been 75 today. Unfortunately he died five years ago, just two weeks after his 70th birthday. But if you're surfing the web upstairs Ersel, thanks for the wonderful Goin' Down That Road. As with many second generation fans I first heard it on the CBS Rockabillies album. Apart from the music there's also that photo, the rock 'n' roll pose that has graced many a film, book or record/CD cover.
