Rewind: Gene Vincent Rocks! And The Blue Caps Roll (1958)

Gene Vincent Rocks! And The Blue Caps Roll was the third album on Capitol Records by Gene Vincent and I think the first one to be credited to just Gene (even though The Blue Caps get a mention in the album title). Both Blue Jeanbop (1956) and Gene Vincent and The Blue Caps (1957) are credited to Gene Vincent and The Blue Caps (though on the labels on both albums it says Gene Vincent and His Blue Caps).

There's a few really good tracks on this. Opener Brand New Beat is pretty cool. I particulary like his take on You'll Never Walk Alone, and You Belong To Me and Your Cheatin' Heart as well are other favourites.
