2.0 out of 5 stars Pre-Amos Moses..., June 28, 2006

I'm a Jerry Reed addict. I've been a big fan for over 35 years. If you are ike me and love to hear the Jerry Reed from the 'Amos Moses', 'When You're Hot You're Hot', era (late 60's-early 70's) then this CD is probably not for you.

I purchased this disc a while back but was sorely disappointed when I listened to it. The Jerry Reed heard on this disc is a very young Jerry Reed. He does not sing or play guitar with his signature sound which came later during his days with RCA and under the watchful eye of Chet Atkins.

5.0 out of 5 stars Early Jerry Reed, March 10, 2005

This is a fine collection of recordings which Jerry made for the Capitol label between 1955 and 1958-just before he went into the service. A great mix of straight-ahead country and rockabilly. Several sides feature steel guitar hall-of-famer and legend Don Helms (who was also Hank, Sr.'s steel player). Another fine reissue by Bear Family reflecting their usual stringent mastering standards. Highly recommended!!

I purchased this CD after hearing the song "Teardrop Street". I was stunned. If you have only heard Jerry Reed in his later years when the vast majority of his style of humorous satirical song then this will be a real treat. His voice was silky smooth with a richness I did not anticipate from him. I wish he had continued with this style, it provided musical enjoyment to my ears.
