( 1-CD DigiPac - 4seitig - mit 36-seitigem Booklet. 30 Einzeltitel. Spieldauer: 72: 48) -- Die weiche Seite einer Rock 'n' Roll-Ikone! Mit den frühen '60s-Klassikern 'You're Sixteen' (später von Ringo Starr wiederentdeckt) und 'Dreamin''. Großartiger Los-Angeles-Pop vom Beginn der Sechziger, produziert vom legendären Snuff Garrett. -- Johnny Burnette gilt als einer der wildesten Rockabilly-Musiker, der für einige der großartigsten Aufnahmen dieses Genres gesorgt hat. Aber es gab auch eine andere Seite. Nachdem seine Rockabilly-Platten sich nicht durchsetzen konnten, ging er nach Los Angeles, komponierte Lieder für Ricky Nelson und wurde kurz darauf selbst zu einem Teen-Idol. Diese Zusammenstellung enthält seine fünf Top-100-Treffer aus den Frühsechzigern - alle produziert vom legendären Snuff Garrett und eingespielt mit den besten Studiomusikern von Los Angeles - außerdem gibt es Raritäten, Verblüffendes und ganz einfach eine Menge guter Musik. Die Kopplung bietet ferner klassische Kompositionen wie 'My Special Angel', 'Please Help Me I'm Falling', 'Roses Are Red', 'Moody River' und viele andere. -- Ein Extra-Bonus ist 'Clown Shoes', ein unterbewerteter Klassiker von James Marcus Smith, der später als P. J. Proby in England für Furore sorgte. -- Johnny Burnette starb 1964 bei einem Bootsunfall. Sein Leben war nur kurz und wild - dies hier ist die andere Seite seines beachtlichen musikalischen Erbes.
The softer side of a rock 'n' roll god! Includes two early '60s classics, 'You're Sixteen' (later revived by Ringo Starr) and 'Dreamin''. Fabulous early '60s Los Angeles pop, produced by the legendary Snuff Garrett. -- These days, Johnny Burnette is justly renowned as one of the all-time wildest rockabillies, who made maybe the greatest-ever rockabilly recordings. But there was another side to Johnny Burnette. After his rockabilly singles failed, he moved to Los Angeles, wrote songs for Ricky Nelson, and soon became a teen idol in his own right. This set includes his five Hot 100 entries from the early '60s, all produced by the legendary Snuff Garrett with the cream of the Los Angeles session men, plus rarities, obscurities, and simply great performances. In addition to his own fine songs and big hits, this compilation includes classic songs like 'My Special Angel', 'Please Help Me I'm Falling', 'Roses Are Red', 'Moody River', and many others. There's a bonus in the shape of 'Clown Shoes', a neglected classic written by James Marcus Smith, who would later find fame in England as P. J. Proby. -- Johnny Burnette died in a boating accident in 1964. He'd led a short, often wild, life, but this is the other side of his considerable legacy.
