"Not just good, good enough."
And so we have yet ANOTHER Ricky Nelson collection that just falls short. First the songs should be in chronological order to chart the man's growth as an artist.
Secondly, the songs I would've included are "Tryin' to Get to You", "Shirley Lee" (his most intense rave up), "Rio Bravo", "I'm in Love Again" (a better Fats cover than "I'm Walkin'").
That being said this is still a solid set. If you ever wondered how in the world he got inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame pick this up to find out. The man could rock, sing, and he's one of the unsung founders of country rock.
If you'd like to dig deeper, and can find them, get 'The Best of Ricky Nelson: Legendary Masters Series Vol. 1' (EMI/1990) and 'The Best of Rick Nelson Vol. 2' (EMI/1991). These sets cover his Imperial period comprehensively (so no "Fools Rush In" which came out on Decca... d'oh!).
