Good Deal Lucille CD
A hugely prolific recording artist, Al Terry is chiefly remembered for his signature hit Good Deal Lucille, and the handful of Hillbilly and Rockabilly sides he cut for Hickory Records in the mid-1950s.
However, during the 1950s he also cut Honky-Tonk and Country, occasionally duetting with Wilma Lee and Rusty & Doug Kershaw.
In 1955, Country & Western Jamboree magazine placed him at #1 in a “Best New Artist” poll, ahead of Sonny James at #2 and Elvis at #3, conducted among deejays, retailers and distributors.
Although his records rarely made the national charts, many of his releases were significant regional hits, notably in and around Louisiana.
This 34 track collection the very best of Al’s output between 1952-1962, across four different record labels, and includes his celebrated Rock 'n' Roll styled 1958 re-cut of Good Deal Lucille and the rockin' Watch Dog.
