"Conway's rock 'n' roll years are pretty much ignored compared to his country years (except of course for Bear Family's gargantuan box set) and of course there are those who would like to get in on the groundfloor and see what those years were really like.Direct Source attempts to do a decent set of Conway rock, but it sorely misses the mark. First thing to notice is the picture is not period on the front. Ok, we won't sqabble about that, but there are also a complete total lack of liner notes in this. So, we don't know when anything was recorded, etc.But, to add insult to injury, the sound quality is horrendous.
Many cuts are in a very noisy monaural format. One cut seems to be a rerecord(Big Town) and I think one cut makes it in stereo.If you're extremely budget conscious and don't care about the flaws, pick up the thing. But, you'll find you like it and you'll be getting rid of this one!"
