While Rick Nelson never ranked alongside Elvis Presley, the Everly Brothers, or Carl Perkins (he was too much a product of Hollywood early in his career to completely overcome its influence--either in sound or public perception), his material has stood up surprisingly well in the ensuing decades. Nelson had a lovely, seductive voice, and his keen professional choice to utilize ace session musicians (some of whom had helped craft the rockabilly sound Nelson emulated) gave his work a great boost.
But Nelson also had a lot of great tunes--including certifiable classics like "Travelin' Man" and "Lonesome Town"-- in his stable. While Nelson fans will likely quibble that some of their favorites have been left out, the set list of this 20-track GREATEST HITS covers a lot of them. Sadly, the set gives short shrift to his country-rock-flavored work with the Stone Canyon Band (it does include Nelson's latter-day signature tune "Garden Party"); still, fans looking for a concise overview of Nelson's hits will do well to pick this up.
