In May 1956, the two-and-a-half minutes of 'Be Bop A Lula' marked the astonishing recording debut of Gene Vincent, and the following month Gene was back in Owen Bradley's studio in Nashville for his first album, Bluejean Bop. Producer Ken Nelson flipped the echo switch to maximum and created a space-age sound for 'Who Slapped John?', in particular. Gene's voice was softer than most rock 'n' rollers and his tender versions of 'Ain't She Sweet?' and 'Up A Lazy River' display an inkling to become an all-round entertainer. His country roots are covered in 'Waltz Of The Wind' but it is the extraordinary rock 'n' roll numbers such as 'Bluejean Bop' and 'Bop Street' (don't be fooled by the slow start!) that make the album so remarkable and created a guitar hero out of Cliff Gallup. Gene Vincent rocks, the Bluecaps roll and the result is uninhibited magic.

Ace continues its ambitious program of Dion reissues with this pair of mid-'80s recordings for Christian labels. First off, Ace deserves plaudits for even making these recordings available. Dion's catalog has been largely unavailable in the United States for a decade at least. The box set has tracks from all of his periods, but just whets the appetite. I Put Away My Idols was originally released on the Day Spring label in 1983. Full of power chord guitars, synthesizers, and drum machines, it is very much a product of its time, production-wise. But the songs are what endure. Many fans were/are uncomfortable with Dion's faith and its prominence in his work from the period, but it made him no less a street-corner poet who found a way in from the cold. Anchored in contemporary pop and rock, Dion's singing here was as deeply moving and soulful as it remains today: direct, inviting, full of simple personal revelation and Bronx soul. The title cut and Bob Smith's "Daddy," the two hinge-pieces on the set, are a testament to the timelessness of the singer whose gospel evangelizing (no matter how naïve it seems) is genuinely one of sharing -- what to him is good news, not fire-and-brimstone judgment. Kingdom in the Street is the stronger of the two albums, and was issued on Myrrh in 1985. The keyboards are still in the mix but ...

Being ahead of your time is often a bad career move, and Crime is as good an example of this theory as any band around. Crime was one of the very first acts to emerge from the West Coast punk scene, and certainly the first to record. But given California's reputation as the holy land of all that was mellow, it would take a few years for the West Coast underground to gain credibility, and record companies were ignoring the new California bands in favor of what was happening in New York City at the time. Crime only released three singles before calling it quits ...
