This review is from: Bird Doggin' The Complete Challenge Sessions (MP3 Download)

Gene Vincent recorded briefly for the Challenge label (co-founded and co-owned by Gene Autry) circa 1966. The sides he produced are rock 'n' roll with a bit of country and 60s pop influence. This is a good collection, though not the best place to start. That honor obviously goes to the classic 50s rockabilly he did with the Blue Caps. There are some fine songs here, including "Born to be a Rollin' Stone," "Lonely Street," "Love is a Bird," and a fine cover of Merle Haggard's "I'm a Lonesome Fugitive." I could have done without the studio chatter and false starts, and the alternate takes are slightly unnecessary. But, hey, complete is complete.

One last thing: the final song is listed as an alternate take of "Fugitive;" it is actually another alternate of "Rollin' Stone."
