CD Reviews

Could have been on Sun

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is cool. I have a pretty big collection of mainly rock but I'd never heard of this guy. Until that is Bob Dylan's radio show. I went hunting for the cut I'd heard which was "The Same Thing Could Happen to You". I found a version by Steve Marriner, that was countrified & rock-a-billy. This was sort of the arrangement that Lester did only his was blues & rock-a-billy. I found the disc here on Amazon and saw that it was on Ace. There is no better label out there for resurrecting 50s & early 60s rock.

I don't usually listen to things when I first get them. (I just opened and listened to Approved by the Motors that I bought in 1978,) I do get to them within a couple of months usually. This one I was anticipating with a desire to see what the rest of Lester's songs sounded like. Blues-a-billy is what it is and I love it.

It probably isn't for those who thrive solely on the likes of Big Bill Broonzy or Robert Johnson. But if you can listen to them and, say Carl Perkins in the same sitting and enjoy it, them pick this up. You'll be quite happy with the purchase."
