Summary:
Gene Vincent was a key figure in the history of rock 'n' roll, if only for his iconic landmark hit in 1956 with the self-penned 'Be-Bop-A-Lula', which remains one of the great rockabilly records of its time. It's a thorough overview of his core recording career and an enjoyable showcase for his distinctive talent.
