	Ricky Nelson
		Nelson continued to churn out hits in the early '60s, including "Hello Mary Lou." The other side of that single, "Travelin' Man" also soared up the charts and its imaginative TV presentation was essentially the first rock video.
		Nelson clearly wanted to develop - he dropped the "y" from his Christian name in 1961 - but he was rapidly becoming a has-been as rock'n'roll moved into its high-school phase where pizzicato strings, gimmicky arrangements and emotions were endlessly provided by a series of fabricated teen idols.
		As his career had taken an upturn, Nelson had carefully kept himself apart from the growing band of rock'n'roll revivalists who in the uncertain years of the early seventies were trading on the memories and growing sense of nostalgia of their audience.

		Nelson was elected to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1987, and also to the Rockabilly Hall of Fame.
		Nelson was portrayed by William McNamara in the 2006 television mini-series adaptation of Nightmares and Dreamscapes.
		Nelson was lured away from the Imperial label by a mammoth 20-year contract with Decca in 1963 (which would be terminated prematurely in the mid-'70s), and for a year or so the hits continued, at a less frenetic pace.

	Ricky Nelson: Nostalgia
		Ricky Nelson began his career in an unusual way: He played the role of himself on his father’s radio show, The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet.
		Ricky continued to play the role when the show moved to television, and his natural good looks made him a pin-up sensation with teenage girls.
		Ricky was not initially interested in a musical career, but legend has it that he became jealous when his girlfriend became infatuated in Elvis Presley.

	Rick Nelson
		According to Nelson, he had no musical ambitions until after a girlfriend said she was in love with Elvis Presley.
		Nelson's fame also brought him numerous film offers, but unlike many other teen idols, he eschewed the typical teen fare for acclaimed parts in Howard Hawks' classic "Rio Bravo" (1959), which co-starred John Wayne and Dean Martin, and "The Wackiest Ship" in the Army (1960), with Jack Lemmon.
		Nelson's follow-up albums didn't catch on, and by the mid-Seventies he had lost his MCA contract.

	Ricky Nelson Liner Notes \| Nov 1986 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Ricky lip-synched to the record on the Nelson family's weekly TV show and a few days later his name was in the top five for the first of many times.
		Ricky's first LP (entitled "Ricky"), released later in 1957, features a lot of great guitar from the ever fabulous Joe Maphis (on the Mosrite doubleneck) but otherwise, what with the weird tempos, goofy background vocals, and Ricky's own strange crooning and warbling, this record sounds completely unconvincing today.
		However, Ricky Nelson loved rock and roll, had a lot of talent, and must have decided around this time that singing was his true calling because by his second LP (entitled "Ricky Nelson") he had begun to transform himself into a fine rock and roller.

		As chronicled in James Ritz's liner notes, Nelson turned to music more or less on a dare, and while he could carry a tune, he had little personality as a singer when he started, relying for his popularity more on his familiarity as a television star and his good looks.

		Ricky has been quoted to say, "Music is an expression of one's self.
		Who we are as musicians is sculpted by our influences and experiences in life." Ricky's life experiences have molded him into an awesome entertainer who assuredly deserves notice.
		This is something Ricky is very excited about because he is working with his brother Randy, and the CD will almost inevitably be titled "The Shattuck Brothers." Written and produced by Randy Shattuck, this CD will yield an unbelievable variety of songs that will awaken all your inner emotions.

		Nelson was only 17 at the time, and considering his young age, he sounds musically surprisingly mature on many of these early recordings.
		The songs are a mixture of Nelson's own rockabilly favourites and softer ballads to please a larger audience and his father Ossie, who played a big role during Nelson's early years as a recording artist.
		On his second album "Ricky Nelson", Rick is backed by a bunch of younger talented musicians with guitar legend James Burton as the most prominent; most solos though, were still played by Joe Maphis.

		Nelson is also credited with being the original and very first Teen Idol, a title he occasionally shunned, and preferred to be recognised as a musician, which he ultimately was.
		Both Ozzie and Harriet Nelson were Big Band musicians/singers during the early years of their careers throughout the 1930's and 1940's - he was the younger son of Ozzie Nelson, the leader of a big band, and Harriet Hilliard Nelson, the band's singer.
		RICKY NELSON remains the most enduring, interesting and gifted of all the Teen Idols, the ultimate musician among them all and he will never be forgotten.

	Event Reviews - Ricky Lee Birthday Bash
		We eventually found a parking space a good few yard's walk away from the centre entrance and as we walked towards the centre we could see the condensation on the windows signalling the heat contained therein.
		The fire exits were opened to allow the venue to cool down but this didn't seem to help and slowly the crowd began to gradually depart around 4:30am.
		To Ricky Lee the Dainty Crew would like to enforce their best wishes for his birthday and all the best for the year ahead.

	Ricky - Rick Nelson - Song Listings
		After releasing his first two singles, "A Teenager's Romance"/"I'm Walking" and "You're My One and Only Love," on Verve Records, Ricky Nelson switched to Imperial Records in the fall of 1957 for his third single, "Be-Bop Baby"/"Have I Told You Lately That I Love You?," and his debut album, Ricky....
		The result was even greater success: the single's A-side reached the top five and its B-side the Top 40, making for a gold record, and the LP topped the charts.
		Two songs were borrowed from Carl Perkins and one from Jerry Lee Lewis, and Nelson covered Jimmie Rodgers' recent hit "Honeycomb." All of his covers were more relaxed, less frantic than the originals, but the band, pushed way back in the mix, kept up a steady guitar combo sound.
