Totally agree, the Fraternity stuff knocks me out, including things that weren't even issued at the time like this Later stuff, not so much. Quote
danasgoodstuff Posted April 27, 2016 Report Posted April 27, 2016 (edited) as in Why was he largely recognized only as a guitar slinger when he had real skills as a singer and songwriter as well...this whole album (1963) is the perfect rebuttal to why did it take the Brits to recognize great American music...it didn't (but it did, but it didn't).

paul secor Posted April 28, 2016 Report Posted April 28, 2016 Well, "Memphis" was a top 10 hit here, but he was pretty much forgotten for years after that in the U.S. Quote
