RAY SMITH ARRIVED AT SUN RECORDS IN 1958 WITH A LOT OF TALENT AND A BIT OF HOPE. THE LABEL NEEDED SOMEONE TO TAKE IT ON ANOTHER NOTCH WHEN JOHNNY CASH AND JERRY LEE LEWIS’ CAREER HIT THE PRESS BARRIER. RAY HAD A VOICE AND THE DESIRE TO HAVE BEEN THAT MAN BUT HE DIDN’T MAKE A HIT TO EVERYONE’S FRUSTRATION, HE MADE HIS OWN MARK ON POPULAR MUSIC HISTORY WITH “ROCKIN’ LITTLE ANGEL” ON JUD PHILLIPS’ JUDD LABEL. THIS CD COLLECTS TOGETHER FOR THE FIRST TIME ALL THE SONGS HE MADE FOR THE SUN AND JUDD LABELS DURING THE PERIOD 1958-1962. IT INCLUDES ALL HIS ORIGINAL SINGLE AND LP RELEASES AND AT LEAST ONE VERSION – INCLUDING THE UNISSUED ONES – OF EVERY OTHER SONG HE MADE AT THE TIME. THE MUSIC IS TAKEN FROM MASTER TAPES AND RAY SMITH NEVER SOUNDED SO GOOD BEFORE. GREAT ******
