  • Description

    Gary Williams, born 1938, from the Pacific Northwest of the USA, has written over 600(!) songs in a career that spanned a mere 40 years. Bear Family Records® re-releases 34 of his greatest recordings - rockabilly, country
    and folk - from 1957 to '66, released on Verve, Panorama, Manito, Connie Sue and Empire, among others.



    Throughout his life, Gary Williams was overshadowed by the great stars of his time - based on the quality of his songs and his great performance, he should have been one of them!



    A jam-packed CD album with carefully restored and re-mastered recordings.



    Country and Rock and Roll musician Deke Dickerson was able to interview Gary
    Williams shortly before his death and wrote the elaborately researched liner notes for the illustrated booklet.
