True fans of early roots rock & roll are likely to sneer at Ricky Nelson. With little to run on but his teen-idol good looks and his high-profile popularity from his starring role on OZZIE AND HARRIET, Nelson started making records at 17 years of age. Though he didn't show an overwhelming amount of talent at the outset, he proved a quick study, and even his very first album, RICKY, has some strong moments. The fare is rockabilly-styled pop, and while it clocks in hipper than Pat Boone, it doesn't touch the hem of Elvis Presley or Carl Perkins.

Nelson had learned a lot by his self-titled second album, however; the smoking session players, famed Sun Studios guitarist James Burton among them, help a lot. The band pushed the star to rock harder, but what stands out here is Nelson's voice, which comes across with greater confidence, and is already moving toward the dreamy, crooning style he would later perfect. Both albums are collected here in a twofer, and while they shouldn't be placed alongside Jerry Lee Lewis in the annals of early rock & roll, they are fine examples of polished, late-50s pop-rock.

Includes liner notes by James Ritz.

Digitally remastered by Bob Fisher (2001).

Two 1964 albums are combined onto one CD on this reissue, which adds historical liner notes. Nelson's mid-'60s albums would have seemed like far more respectable efforts had they been able to escape comparison with a fast-changing rock scene. As it was, the innovations of the British Invasion, Beach Boys, Phil Spector, and much more made ...

A two-fer CD reissue combining two 1965 LPs onto one disc. Best Always isn't bad, although there's little to distinguish it from the other easygoing pop-rock albums he made during the period, except for the slightly higher quality of the material. "Mean Old World," both more forceful and moodier than anything else he cut in 1964-1965, is by far the best song, but there are some OK numbers from the pens of Johnny Burnette and Jerry Fuller; Jimmy Seals and Dash Crofts also contribute to a couple of tunes, "Only the Young" (written by Seals and Charles Eugene) boasting a quite good pop melody. Rick stretches his vocal range on the cover of the Skyliners' "Since I Don't Have You" and gives a taste ...
