Jerry Wallace was a pop and country singer who built a reputation as a performer before making his recording debut for the Hollywood label Vogue, a division of Gene Autry's Melody Ranch corporation, and moving around the labels until he ended up back at Autry's Challenge label in 1957. He is best-known these days for his Top 10 US pop hit with "Primrose Lane" in 1959 as he made the transition into the rock 'n' roll era with a string of hits that lasted into the '70s as he gravitated to the country charts. This 55-track 2-CD collection comprises most of his A & B sides from this era on the Vogue, Allied, Mercury, Wing & Challenge labels, plus the titles from his albums "Just Jerry" and "There She Goes" not otherwise released on singles. It features all his eleven US pop hits from this era, including the Top 30 entries "How The Time Flies", "Primrose Lane", "There She Goes" and "Shutters And Boards". He was an artist with a broad musical base who could readily handle old-school pop, rock 'n' roll and R&B-flavoured material (several of his hits made the R&B chart), along with the country style he increasingly embraced, and this collection is not only a pretty thorough trawl across his early career but an entertaining showcase for that versatility.
