(1-CD DigiPac - 4seitig - mit 36-seitigem Booklet. 33 Einzeltitel. Spieldauer: 79: 24) -- Sie nannten ihn den 'besten Freund, den ein Song haben konnte'. Und hier sind 33 Beweise dafür. Eine Exklusiv-Kopplung aus Conways Frühzeit, bevor er Country-Star wurde. Mit dabei: das Original des Welt-Hits 'It's Only Make Believe'! Dieses Album bildet die perfekte Ergänzung zum Bear-Family-Klassiker 'Conway Twitty Rocks'! -- Statistiken weisen Conway Twitty als einen der fünf erfolgreichsten Country-Künstler der Musikgeschichte aus - aber zuvor war er schon ein Balladen-Rock 'n' Roller - und zwar einer der besten. Diese exklusive Kopplung basiert auf seinen Aufnahmen für Sun, Mercury und MGM Records aus den Jahren 1956 bis 1963 - mit enthalten ist eine der mächtigsten Balladen aller Zeiten, 'It's Only Make Believe'. Auch dabei sind 'Lonely Boy Blue' (ursprünglich für Elvis komponiert) und 'Is A Bluebird Blue', der erste Hit des großen Soulschreibers Dan Penn. Integriert in viele Conway-Originale sind tolle Versionen von Song-Klassikern wie 'You'll Never Walk Alone', 'You Win Again', 'C'Est Si Bon' und 'What Am I Living For'. -- Country-Fans können auf dieser Zusammenstellung entdecken, auf welche Weise Conway sich seinem späteren Sound angenähert und wie er seinen unverwechselbaren Stil gefunden hat. Für Rock 'n' Roller bietet diese CD Momente der Beruhigung. Und wer großartigen Gesang schätzt, erfährt hier, warum man Conway Twitty den 'besten Freund, den ein Song haben konnte' genannt hat.
They called him 'The Best Friend A Song Ever Had.' Here are 33 reasons why. An exclusive compilation drawn from Conway's early years, before his country stardom which includes the original version of the worldwide mega-hit 'It's Only Make Believe'! A companion to Bear Family's top-selling 'Conway Twitty Rocks'! -- The statistic books rank Conway Twitty among the Top 5 country artists of all time, but before he was a country singer, he was a rock 'n' roll balladeer. One of the best, in fact. This exclusive compilation is drawn from his recordings for Sun, Mercury, and MGM Records between 1956 and 1963, and includes his original version of one of the greatest power ballads of all time, 'It's Only Make Believe'. It also includes 'Lonely Blue Boy', a song originally written for Elvis, as well as 'Is A Bluebird Blue', the first hit by the great soul songwriter, Dan Penn. Mixed in among Conway's originals are stellar versions of classic songs like 'You'll Never Walk Alone', 'You Win Again', 'C'Est Si Bon', and 'What Am I Living For'. -- Country fans need to explore where Conway found his way with a song, and this is the compilation that shows how and where he developed his unique style. -- Rock 'n' roll fans need this for their quieter moments. And fans of great singing need this compilation to discover why Conway Twitty was called 'The Best Friend A Song Ever Had.'
,,Obwohl die Balladen für den eher zurückhaltenden Charakter der damaligen Zeit stehen, bringt Conway die Songs mit seinen leicht rauen Vocals auf ein kernigeres Niveau." (Good Times, 10 / 11.2010)
