A Teenage Idol - All The Hits 1957-1962 CD

Ricky Nelson was just about America's most famous teenager in the 1950s, having grown up in public on the TV show The Adventures of Ozzie & Harriet.
When he burst onto the US charts in the spring of 1957 with his first record, I'm Walkin' backed with A Teenager's Romance, nobody could have envisaged that his singing career would ultimately eclipse his role in the TV series.
Propelled by plugs in Ozzie & Harriet, his first nine singles were million-sellers, and in the United States during the late 50s, he was second in popularity only to Elvis.
This 34-track collection features all of Ricky's 33 US hits between 1957-62, including Be Bop Baby, Stood Up, Believe What You Say, Poor Little Fool, Lonesome Town, Never Be Anyone Else But You, Just A Little Too Much, Travelin' Man, Hello Mary Lou, Teenage Idol, It's Up To You and many others, along with his UK Top 10 hit Someday which was never issued as a 45 in the US.
