Perhaps it was the luck of being born in 1958, and having parents who loved music thus giving me incredible exposure to rock and roll from my infancy,is why there still is a hunger to hear some more, some star I have forgotten or someone that I just never thought of as a rock and roll star. I guess then Conway is that latter star. It's Only Make Believe is still one of the greatest songs I have ever heard and always just stops me dead in my tracks. I have known for quite some time that Conway started with intentions of becoming a rock and roll star. I have had a couple of the rock and roll lps by Conway and was putting them up for auction on ebay, I decided to burn them to cd for my library. Wow, I really forgot how good some of covers were. I decided to search the catalogue to see if these gems were on crystal clear cd's with some more material. I got lucky and found this UK issued cd and to my surprise a few Elvis covers that I had not heard yet. The cover of Heartbreak Hotel is worth getting the cd alone. Then so are the other 7 or so Elvis covers, or Little Richard, Jimmy Reed, Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, Bobby Darin , Ray Charles or Jerry Lee Lewis songs. Conway does an exceptional job with all. Soulful or rockin', he does understand rock and roll. Considering the fate of all these contemporaries, it's quite amazing how Conway easily slipped in to country music and became one of it's biggest stars, even Elvis couldn't pull that off. If you have any interest in Conway, just get the cd and play it loud, the music will speak for itself, it's only rock and roll baby, what's the worse thing that could happen, you might tap your feet, or shake your head back and forth, or sing along and think what a great version of that song.The cd mastering also gets high marks, clear and pure mono with no tampering.Read full review
