If asked, Don Gibson wouldn't have said he was a rock 'n' roller or a rockabilly, but his career broke wide open at the dawn of the rock 'n' roll era, and he made some rock-flavored records with a very individualistic slant. This long-overdue collection assembles all of Don Gibson's uptempo sides, programmed for listenability and engineered for sonic perfection. In addition to Don Gibson's fabulous original versions of Oh Lonesome Me, Blue Blue Day and Sea Of Heartbreak, there are 30 other rockin', swingin' and shakin' uptempo songs. Don Gibson even rocks up some unusual songs like Camptown Races and That Lonesome Valley. His music speaks for itself.
