Yes,this is 'early' Conway Twitty, and yes, 3 his big hits from this period are here (Mona Lisa,It's Only Make Believe & Danny Boy) but the sound on this cd is very bad. It's so cheap, almost like the real audio here on amazon. And every song has a 1-2 seconds fade in. Sad.

I was looking for Twitty's early rockabilly sides, because I heard he had a rockabilly past before coming a "big haired" country ballad singer, who taled his way thru songs. Well these sides aren't horrible, but only several of the tracls qualify as rockabilly, but most of it is throwaway doo-wop stuff which is really dated sounding. The highlight is a swingin' rockabilly version of "Mona Lisa", and several others that sound like they could have made him a rockabilly star. I regret purchasing this cd, and do not recomend it. By the way Twitty is unrecognizable on this cd, if you are used to his hits, he's actually a decent singer here, it's just too much sappy dated doo-wop and not enough rockabilly, if this were all rockabilly I'd give it 4 stars.

Anything that Conway Twitty did is terrfic. I have almost everything He ever did, I was a fan of His sice I was 12yrs old, I am now 53, I admired his vocal range and & He sings ever song from the heart. This is will shows His talent ability of His younger years. He really Rocks on this one. I am so thankful, though He is gone, we can still have His wonderful music to remind us of Him. If you are a Conway Twitty fan, this is a must to add to your collection.

I was not happy at all. I ordered a cd with the songs that showed whats on the cd and when it arrived it had different songs on it. Not good.

I've looked at two Conway Twitty cds. #60 and #129. I would have loved to buy either one,not used but new thankyou. Neither are available. How stupid is that. Hence my displeasure and my review is "useless" Why bother to list things you can't by in for potential customers?

Yes there's too much doo wop here, but there is also some classic rockabilly, who knew that this later to become afro wearing guy had a past career in rock'n'roll. Intersting stuff, most of it being a little campy, but for the price worthwhile.
