5.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE IT WHEN THEY DO THIS!, December 17, 2003

By	Charles Wilder (Dover, NH United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

All or almost all of Rick's rockers on one CD! If you are an old rockabilly cat like me or a new rockabilly cat for that matter your collection isn't complete without this one. There is a weak cut or two here . For instance he should have left "Whole Lotta Shakin" alone or tried another arrangement. But overall it's great fun. Rick could rock for sure and was always backed up by a very tight band no matter who was in it! If you are a guitar player both Burton and Maphis are in top form here. This CD fits right in with Carl, Gene, Eddy, Elvis and all the other great Rockabilly artists. Highly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Ricky Rocks! Ricky Rules!, October 5, 2000

By	T. Bradley Tucker (Richmond, VA United States) - See all my reviews

This is EXACTLY the Rick collection I was looking for. Straight-ahead Rickabilly with nary a ballad in the bunch. Rick was truly bad to the bone, as important as Elvis or Carl Perkins (who were big Rick fans themselves). This would make a great companion piece to any Sun Records collection you might have a mind to pick up (Elvis, Carl, Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash, Charlie Rich, Jerry Lee Lewis). Make Rick an important part of your daily Rock-n-Roll diet.

3.0 out of 5 stars five stars for the music; one star for the sound, January 13, 2000

By	"[e-mail]" (Oakley, KS USA) - See all my reviews

I was very excited to receive this CD, and very disappointed when I heard it. The sound is thin, and I quickly experienced ear fatigue. I have some of these songs on other Rick Nelson collections, so I know how well recorded they were, and how good they could sound. What a disappointment!
