Ricky Nelson - Legacy (2000)





[2000 / CD / FLAC / Lossless / Log]

Rick Nelsons lengthy career spanned 30 years, with records on the charts from the late 50s to the early 80s, yet most remember him only as "Little Ricky." This comprehensive, 100-song retrospective rectifies that, giving full scope to his remarkable and surprisingly robust career. Additionally, the photo-heavy booklet gives insight into the era when rock & roll, television, and culture first merged. Ricky Nelson was the first teen idol who grew up on television. His parents Ozzie and Harriet Show afforded him the opportunity to sing, and he was groomed to be early TVs middle ground between Elvis and Pat Boone.Rick Nelsons teenage celebrity typecast him for life, but Legacy reveals a solid musician who matured and grew over time. This anthology does him and his fans a great service. --Wally Shoup

Disc 3: Easy To Be Free (1966-1972)

Disc 3 documents Rick's (he had dropped the y) mid-'60s evolution into a country sound heavily influenced by Bob Dylan's Nashville Skyline.
