On September 20, 2004, Jimmy Spellman was inducted into the Rockabilly Hall of Fame. Best known for his rockin' 'Doggonit' on Dot and series of primitive country classics cut for Lee Hazlewood's Viv label, this cult favorite has also been honored by the Madison Square Garden Museum in Phoenix, Arizona, alongside such notable local talents Duane Eddy, Jimmy Dell, Sanford Clark, Al Casey, Chuck Mayfield, Wayne Newton and Loy Clingman.

Despite a central role in Phoenix, Arizona's fertile rockabilly scene of the 1950s, Jimmy Spellman's musical career has never been examined in-depth. That changes with Bear Family's comprehensive package, collecting for the first time all of Jimmy Spellman's well-regarded Viv, Dot, Vik, Rev and Redstart recordings. Jimmy Spellman was the first artist chosen to record for Lee Hazlewood's Viv Records imprint in 1955. Before hitmakers Sanford Clark and Duane Eddy, Lee Hazlewood spent more time and money on Jimmy Spellman as the conduit for his early compositions. In his short aix years of recording (1955-1960), Jimmy Spellman covers the Country, Rock and Pop styles of music with class.
