MAXI MP3 SINGLE

Born Douglas Willis Dickerson, 1927, Grand Saline, Texas, USA. Died in 1979.  Dub started out in the music business as a guitar player in Zeke Clemons band 'Texas Swingbillies'. He was not an out and out rock n roller being more comfortable singing in the country & hillbilly style. But he did lean towards rockabilly occasionally. His best rocker by a long shot was 'Boppin' in the Dark' sadly it remained in the vaults for many years before its inclusion on a 2005 rockabilly compilation album  ('Action Packed! Volume 4: 16 Red Hot Rockin' Hits') titled 'Boppin'.
