Conway Twitty - C'est Si Bon: The Pick Of His Mgm Years 1958-1962 [CD]

Conway Twitty went from rockabilly, to rock 'n' roll, to pop balladeer over a five-year period while signed to MGM RECORDS. This collection gathers together all his hit singles and the A sides of his less successful releases, some B sides and the limited edition 33rpm stereo singles he released on that label between 1958 and 1962. It starts with his multi-million selling "It's Only Make Believe", ends with his last single for the label and includes recordings that radio support suggests the wrong sides were occasionally chosen as the A side. The package also showcases his early song writing talents - 10 of the songs were written or co-written by Twitty. Other songs come from well-known songwriters including Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, Otis Blackwell, Dan Penn, Chuck Willis, Bert Berns and Fred Rose. This is more than a 'Best Of... ', these thirty-two tracks tell you more about Conway Twitty musically than previously issued collections have. The 6 page booklet includes a brief biography, plus full track listing, writers' credits and catalogue numbers of releases in America and Britain.
