Limited edition 180gm autographed anniversary vinyl LP pressing housed in a gatefold sleeve. Matthew and Gunnar Nelson had rare insight into what it took to make it in the entertainment world and successfully carried on the inspiring story of a most remarkable show business family. Their grandparents, Ozzie and Harriet, achieved immortality with The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet, the longest-running live action sitcom in television history. Earlier, the couple had enjoyed big band success and had scored a No. 1 hit in 1934. Long before MTV made twins Matthew & Gunnar pop-rock icons, their father Ricky Nelson was a TV star and teen idol in his own right. The Rock and Roll Hall of Famer is known for such hits as "Poor Little Fool," "Travelin' Man," "Hello Mary Lou," "Garden Party," "Lonesome Town," "Never Be Anyone Else But You," and "Teenage Idol."

Excellent
It is so rare to find an album of so many good songs. Not a single bad song on the whole record.

Surprisingly...this is a great vinyl release!
How can you go wrong with a 180g remastered vinyl release that includes autographs? Only if the remaster is horrible which with Friday Music using Joe Reagaso is always a huge gamble. However, with the help of the Nelson Twins on the remaster, they got this one right. The original release of this on CD in 1990 contained some songs that were digitally over compressed nightmares (especially with songs like “Love and Affection” and “It’s Just Desire”). This 2017 vinyl project has been seriously cleaned up, warmed up, and sounds phenomenal. The vinyl is super quiet, and the gatefold cover is fantastic quality card stock. It’s just super fun hair band power pop that delivers a great punch. The piano on “Interlude/Everywhere I Go” is crisp and clear. I’m impressed with this Friday Music Vinyl release, and this is from someone who has sent many of their projects back. So the verdict is...I highly recommend this...get it while you can!

Come'On...It's Nelson!
Who wouldn't think this vinyl Record isn't good?! haven't opened it...not sure when if I will, so yeah 5 stars for having it! if you grew up in the 80's and didn't like the singles these guys had, then you were a book worm reading and studying to be a lawyer, doctor, or astronaut. Do I....Do I Love ….this record....More then Ever! Come'On! I have the first Recording and Last.....the 1st is still the best!

After the rain has gone ......
A great album ....by some very talented guys ...brought it back in the day but thought it was a worthy vinyl purchase ..went to see the guys when they played the Rockingham music festival 2018.They played a great set and very generously came on twenty minutes early to play more music for us.Back to the vinyl which sounds excellent...they have done a excellent job with the remaster...and my copy came with a bonus signed photo.Highly recommend...:-)
