I like all Gene's material. One biography described his Kama Sutra album 'If only you could see me today' as his worst: I disagree, I think it shows maturity. Not so keen on the album 'The Day the world turned Blue', great song though. I like the reference to his ex manager Don Arden on one of the other tracks. I think Gene's rendition of 'Unchained Melody' is the finest.
@SilverFoxNo1 Hi, if this is on an album (LP) or CD, hopefully along with the version of Lonely Street I just found, do you know what it is? many thanks
you're right. He was good and God from the beginning to the end of his career. Just one exception the two recordings with the Houseshakers from 1971. Say Mama and I'm Movin' on (poor sound and Gene voice in bad shape)
Very nice, made my whole day, it is great that the world has a chance to hear what a grea balladier he was. This version is right up there with Ray Charles and Jim Reeves and way above Englebert Humperdinck's, Thank you so much for this great posting.
no! he will never be forgotten.

Having been with the Rock n Roll Explosion from day 1
If it was not for You Tube I would never have known how many Beautiful Ballad songs Gene sang
Obviously I had only ever heard his Rockers. Not that it matters at All ... But the strange fact I find is that Not only did he not make No1 in UK
He never Made it into Top Ten infact I think No15 was highest incredible !
However through You Tube he has left a Legacy of Wonderful Rock & Ballads

the problem with Gene Vincent fans is that they never listen to the post capitol recording. All of the Gene vincent recordings are great.
eugenecraddock 2 years ago 4
Yes! this are No Gene Fans who only listen to Rockin Gene of the 50th.
Gene was a amazingt Singer till 1971.Specially the Ballads were not from this World!

Okay, he was sick at the Time, and Gene has bad luck with some of his later Bands, mostly are awful!
