I miss my dad too. Sometimes after all this time I still have a good cry. I cannot imagine having a dad who is famous with the legacy he has and missing him. I'm sorry you lost your dad.
I was thinking of you as I’d just watched a video with wonderful photos of you, your twin brothers & 2 of your cousins while the song of Promenade in Green played! The last photo is of you & your dad in the 80’s...I can only tell that by your pretty hair style. (I am a year behind you.) You’re an amazing lady, Tracy! There’s no doubt they’re all so proud of you! (I miss my parents, too. My dad passed when I was young, too.) Love to you & yours. ♥️🌹🌿
Rick did an excellent version on his second album back in 1958 and throughout his career would play My Babe, Good Rockin' Tonight and Milkcow Blues. Any idiot who compares him to Fabian, Bobby or Frankie shows their lack of knowledge regarding Rick and his music.
Rick Nelson and his band were on the cutting edge of some brilliant music. This is some of the most creative work I've heard. Big time hit on any format!
Thanks, Tim, for mentioning that, I’d turned my head & missed that the first time! Nice catch! 🙏🏼🙌🏼. It’s @ about 1:09 you can hear one of the guys say, “Take it, Rick!” SWEET! ♥️
Many moons back in the mid-50's,a mate with money had a player and a few discs. I heard Ricky Nelson singing My Babe and others of his. Suddenly I found rock'n' roll. What a talent Ricky was. Taken decades too soon.
I don't play the "Rick was better than Elvis" game or vice versa. Both were great in their own way. Carl Perkins was great. Chuck Berry was great. There's room for everybody at the Table of Rock and Roll. It's the music that brings people together!
I do. Ricky was cool but he couldn't hold Elvis' guitar strap, especially his live version of this song. And Carl Perkins would be completely unknown if not for writing Blue Suede Shoes. However, I agree with your sentiments.

Did you know that their are 2 members of The Eagles playing with Rick in this Band!! Yes that's right!! Randy Meisner & Tom Brumley! Did you know that RAck also sat in on their album of Hotel California!!!!Yes that's also right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bands don't ever print those who sit in on their albums! They are known as The Eagles & want to keep it that way to their fans & record ..cd buyers! Dean Torrence & I were talking & I had said to him.."That Rick is playing on that album..as I recognize his guitar & style in Peaceful Easy Feeling & other songs!! He said I really had a good ear for music to pick that out!! He said that I was absolutely right!!It is Rick Nelson & then I asked him why? As you read above..that's what he said!!! Now You know!!!! Daisy Mae
That's not Randy Meisner, that's Jay White. Meisner played in another incarnation of The Stone Cyn Band. And yes, that is indeed the great Tom Brumley.
I say bullshit too on Brumley being the other "member" from the Eagles. Nothing in the Eagles history mentions Tom Brumley. But they did credit Al Perkins for playing pedal steel on Ol' 55, from the On The Border album. So yeah, Allan/Daisy Mae/whoever is full of shit.
Many an artist covered Little Walter. But Rick Nelson was one of the few who did so convincingly. This was the Stone Canyon Band line up with Tom Brumley and Every Mother's Son co-founder Dennis "Denny Larden" Sarokin. A summit meeting of sorts that consistently got the job done.
L to R: Denny Sarokin on guitar, (looks like he’s playing lead, but I can’t tell...except for when Rick plays lead solo), Rick Nelson, Ty Grimes on drums, Jay DeWitt White on bass guitar & Tom Bromley on his steel guitar! No idea where. Approx. between 1973 to 1978.
RICK was the real deal, so talented and so good looking, better than elvis He was underrated tho He played 4 instruments I saw him live and he was great Miss u RICK RIP
THIS song was upsetting? Rick thought it was Honkey Tonk Women! A few people there said at that time you could walk around at MSG & they said the feeling of...upset was palpable.
