Legacy Poster

Disc 2 has the majority of Ricky's largest hits, pop pieces from '59 to '65, where the addition of strings and the Jordanaires' backing vocals led to smash hits like "Mary Lou," "Travelin' Man," and "Young World."

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. Rick's version of Dylan's "Love Minus Zero/No Limit" was well received, but the big hit on this disc is "Garden Party," a wry, autobiographical take on his rejection by a '72 oldies-oriented crowd at Madison Square Garden.

Disc 4 features material with his Stone Canyon Band, covering the period from 1972 to 1985, the year of his unfortunate plane crash. By now, his rich, yearning voice blends perfectly with the pedal-steel-led band, and the music sounds remarkably contemporary.

Rick Nelson's 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
