"[H]is idiosyncratic songwriting drew from disparate genres, opening new vistas for early rock'n'roll."Dirty Linen - p.60
"[T]his four-CD compilation will finally help you trace his development as one of rock 'n' roll's most soulful and preeminent singers from his early beginnings doing country rockabilly in the mid-1950s to the late 1980s..."Blender (Magazine) - p.84
