's 2012 set is part of their line, a series that concentrates on the rocking & rolling and boogie-woogie sides of country and rockabilly singers. is rarely seen as a rockabilly cat and there's a reason for that. He was a cowboy, and a Hollywood one at that, so he never really tore loose the way a rowdy redneck would, but the 30 cuts on -- the earliest dating from 1945, the latest from 1961, but most coming from the '50s -- have a serious swing to them, showcasing that could get wild and woolly when the occasion called for it. This disc contains almost all of those occasions, most leaning toward a hard-swinging country boogie that performed ably and amiably. He was capable of doing more -- something makes clear in his fine liner notes, and his sentiment is borne out by other sets -- but it's easy to overlook how rowdy he could be, and showcases this wild streak to an entertaining effect. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
