That'll Flat Git It! is one of the most successful CD series from the German label Bear Family Records . The series deals thematically with rockabilly and is expanded irregularly in non-chronological order. Each CD contains different tracks from a legendary record label of the 1950s. The first CD was released in 1993 with the theme Rockabilly from the Vaults of RCA , exclusively with pieces from the RCA Records catalog.

The presentation of this CD series takes a lot of effort. Bill Millar, a rockabilly historian from the 1970s and 1980s, was hired to compile the individual CDs; the accompanying booklets are written by renowned music historians such as Colin Escott , Michael Wells, Wayne Russel, Bill Dahl and Rob Finnis. Bear Family says they do their own research on unknown musicians in order to be able to present information to buyers in the booklet, so that there was a more or less detailed biography for almost every artist. The title of the series is based on the signature phrase of early rockabilly DJ Dewey Phillips , who shouted “That'll Flat Git It!” At the beginning of each of his radio programs.

The series has now become a standard among rockabilly collectors. The 34th edition was published in June 2020.
