They present Locklin doing a rougher, harder honky-tonk brand of music, derived from Texas dance-band roots, but different from the Nashville countrypolitan sound with which he achieved lasting fame -- compared to his later, softer material, this stuff rocks.
Of his early Four Star releases, the most unexpected treats are "Knocking at Your Door," Locklin's theme song in his Texas period, and the heavily Hank Williams-influenced "Born to Ramble." The latter is a revelation, showing Locklin to be a talented yodeler, among other surprises.
Disc Three opens with Locklin's move to Nashville in 1952, under the aegis of Owen Bradley -- the sound on those first sessions is smooth, almost elegant compared with the Texas-based stuff, and shows Locklin hitting his stride as a singer and bandleader, predating the full bloom of his Nashville period.

Lawrence Hankins Locklin, "The Mayor of McLellan, Florida," made a fine career out of a broad smile, a distinctive soaring tenor voice, and a few great songs.
He served a long music apprenticeship between Hot Springs, Shreveport, and Houston after World War II: working with Harmie Smith, Elmer Laird, and ultimately coming under the managerial reins of H. "Pappy" Daily.
All of Daily's acts then ended up with Bill McCall of Four Star Records (Pasadena, California), and Locklin had a couple of hits for them (see below), followed by a Four Star-arranged Decca distribution deal.
