Album Notes Coinciding with and coexisting alongside the mid-1970s rise of punk rock, the singer Robert Gordon's immaculate rockabilly re-creations resurrected such '50s greats as Johnny Burnette and Link Wray for a new generation. This double-CD set combines several of Gordon's 1970s and early-'80s releases, featuring such classics as his version of Joe Bennett and the Sparkletones' "Black Slacks" as well as several Elvis Presley covers, notably "Suspicion" and "Blue Christmas."
