Ricky Nelson - The Best Of Ricky Nelson
Review by Shelby von Hofe
The Best of Ricky Nelson is a compilation album that showcases the musical brilliance of the late American singer, songwriter, and musician, Ricky Nelson. This album features some of his most popular and iconic songs, including "Hello Mary Lou," "Travelin' Man," and "Garden Party."
The album opens with the upbeat and catchy track, "Be-Bop Baby," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. Each song on the album is a testament to Nelson's versatility as a musician, with a blend of rockabilly, pop, and country influences. His smooth, effortless vocals and guitar skills are showcased throughout the album.
The album also includes some of Nelson's lesser-known tracks, such as "It's Late" and "Lonesome Town," which are equally impressive and demonstrate his range as an artist. The Best of Ricky Nelson is a perfect introduction to his music for those who are new to his work and a great collection for fans who want to revisit his classics.

About Ricky Nelson
Born: May 8th, 1940, Teaneck, New Jersey, United States.
Died: December 31st, 1985, De Kalb, Texas, United States.
Nelson was a child prodigy, born into a showbiz family, his father Ozzie was a bandleader and his mother Harriet was the singer. They had their own radio show & subsequent TV show, The Adventures Of Ozzie & Harriet, in which Nelson featured with his brother David. Nelson appeared in his first film aged 7.
A 'Teenage Idol' of the late 1950s and early 1960s, Nelson gained 9 gold records by the age of 21 in 1961. His single, 'Travelin' Man', was a huge #1 hit that year, selling over 2 million copies. The flip-side 'Hello, Mary Lou' went on to be his biggest hit ever, reaching #1 in 32 countries.
In April 1963, Nelson married Kristin Harmon and they had a daughter, Tracy, and 3 sons, Gunner, Matthew (who formed the music duo, ) and Sam. They were later divorced. Nelson's career gained a high spot in 1972 with the release of 'Garden Party', which went gold and also won a Grammy Award in 1986 for Best Spoken Word Recording.
On New Year's eve 1985, en route from Alabama to a gig in Dallas, Nelson's plane crash-landed near DeKalb, TX and burst into flames. Only the pilot & co-pilot escaped.
