4.0 out of 5 stars Brief, but cool-- with oddities, June 14, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Rick Nelson - Greatest Hits [Capitol 1990] (Audio CD)

At only 10 songs, and without either "Travelin' Man" or "Hello Mary Lou", this doesn't quite live up to its title. Rick Nelson fans should know at the moment, there IS no such thing as a "perfect" or "complete" best-of package available. But this is a "must-have" for the following reasons: it's the only CD where you can find his 3 earliest recordings in one place. "I'm Walkin'", "A Teenager's Romance" and "You're My One And Only Love". It also has different versions of 2 songs that appeared on the EMI "Vol.1" CD, "Never Be Anyone Else But You" (EMI inexplicably included an "alternate take") and the classic "Believe What You Say" (this is the LP version with The Jordannaires!). Toss in "Stood Up", "Lonesome Town", his 30's remakes from 1963, "Fools Rush In" and "For You" and you have an album that would only have been better with a few more tunes added. But did they HAVE to include "Garden Party" from '72? (Sure it was his biggest hit ever-- but here, it just sounds out-of-place!)

I just got this for $1.44 used on Amazon! It contains all 3 of Rick's Verve hits ("I'm Walkin'", "A Teenager's Romance", and "You're My One And Only Love") and his only two Top 10 hits for Decca ("For You" and "Garden Party"). You have to spend TONS to get those 2nd two on Verve and "For You" is rarely anthologized. What a deal!

Great music from a decade where music was great, understandable, and clean. Ricky was one of us and said so in his songs.
Love the album.
