Editorial Reviews

Everyone remembers Ersel for one song and one photo, but there's much more, as this 25 song retrospective reveals. There's not only a rare alternate take of Bluebirds issued only in Canada, but great rock 'n' roll sides like Goin' Down That Road, Stardust Brought Me You, and You Never Can Tell. This retrospective includes all the Epic and Kapp recordings from 1957 to 1960.

I'm surprised there's no other reviews of any of Ersel Hickey's stuff, cause it's so darn good! Tunes like "Going Down that Road" and "Never Can Tell" are what put him in the Rockabilly Hall of Fame, and that pose! That pose has been copied the world over for good reason. Hickey sure knows how to take a basic tune with just the right mojo and splice in wonderful solos, and the recordings really bring out the raw energy in these tracks. He lets that ES-295 sing but good on all 25 of these gems, and no fan of rockabilly or early rock and roll shoulkd be without this collection. I just wish all the unreleased material from this legend would come come out soon!

I never get tired of hearing the wonderful niche Ersel created. "Love in Bloom" is one of the all time greats.
