Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Rockabilly and C&W Bop at its best........2006-07-22

The BGO Records company from England has re-released a series of
two LP's on one CD by famous teen-idol stars from the early 60's
with a superb and unbeatable quality. First I started out with
the Bobby Vee series (fantastic!) and lately I'm collecting the
Johnny Burnette series. It's so wonderful to re-buy on CD what
I "wore out" on 45 rpm while growing up with these singing stars.
Now one can hear those great songs again not only with the
already mentioned quality but also in full STEREO while the old 45's were in MONO of course.
Johnny Burnette in those days was considered as a pure rock-a-
billy singer (Burnette R&R Trio) until he came out with two
consecutive hits that are so incredible that they both belong
to the greatest hits of all times: Dreamin' and You're Sixteen.
These two songs have been the top songs of many generations
and have been re-released many times. They both are from the
LP of 1961 "Hits and Other Favorites" entirely represented
here as well as his next LP of 1962 "Roses Are Red". Besides
the rockabilly and pure teen-age top pop hits, Johnny was a
fine C&W singer like most of the Rockabilly artists from those
days and this compilation of Johnny's LP's also holds well-
known C&W hits like You're The Reason, Walk On By, Little Bitty
Tear, Hello Walls, Clown Shoes, Big Big World etc etc.
That's why this compilation is a five star one:
quality, Rock & Roll (Rockabilly), Country and incredible long-life top hits!
