Frank "Andy" Starr  ~1932 - 2003   Rest in Peace, Frank Starr~ 1950s 1996                         1999                            2002  Starr Struck for reviews/feedback on Starr Struck click on quote: This is one of the CDs that puts the fun in owning a rockabilly station..."  Don Freeman, Rockabilly Radio.

     Frank "Andy" Starr -- he became "Andy" because there was
   was already a singer named Frankie Starr -- cut some of the
   finest rockabilly tracks of the 1950s for the MGM, Lin and
   Holiday Inn record labels. No less than 45 years later, the
   Arkansas rocker known as The Ultimate Rebel returned to
   Nashville in the summer of 2002 to record what were to be
   his final songs. Frank Starr's life was as colorful as it was
   unusual... he lived in hobo jungles as a teenager, had his
   own rock 'n' roll revue (including strippers !) in Alaska,
   ran for President of the United States a couple of times,
   and was eventually elected to the Rockabilly Hall of Fame.
   The first CD to be released from that last recording session,
   -- the Wild Oats Records rockabilly sampler, Starr Struck --
   includes four rockin' tracks on which Starr unleashes a raw
   intensity undiminished by the passage of the years. The seven
   remaining never-before-heard tracks will soon be released on
   a CD entitled The Rockin' Return Of Frank "Andy" Starr.
   Sadly, Frank "Andy" Starr passed away in the fall of 2003
   at age 70. Another legend is lost to us, but his music lives on
   in these vibrant songs. Listen to an MP3 clip of one of Starr's
   recent recordings below... and to buy a copy, click here.
