I just checked out the Johnny Burnette Trio - hot rockabilly!

Oh man, never thought I'd see an excellent question like this here!
All righty - here we go:
The Reverend Horton Heat
Tiger Army
Dick Dale
Red Elvises
Devil Doll
The Horrorpops
Kim Lenz & her Jaguars
Calabrese
Straight Razor Suicide (my peeps)
edit: And the Cramps!
yeah I'm aware I'm going into psychobilly category with some of these ...but that's mostly what I like - and it's still from the Rockabilly family, so it wasn't a stretch

Limiting myself to original rockabilly, I'd say Buddy Holly, Johnny Cash, and Jerry Lee Lewis (all of which have been described as rockabilly, but aren't always rockabilly). I just got a collection called Rockin' Bones which has four CDS filled with lesser known rockabilly stars which I'd recommend to anyone interested in broadening their listening.

The Reverend Horton Heat and The Cramps loom large above the rest of the field. Tiger Army is getting some play of late too with their recent release, really liking the song Afterworld. You gotta hand it to the masters of Gothabilly, esp. these songs.
