A tribute to one of popular music's unsung heroes. Rick Nelson proved to be an influence on the country rock movement of the late 60's and early 70's. The project initially had interest from bands as diverse as Los Angeles' The Tyde to acoustic music from the One AM Radio. Unfortunately those contributions never materialized but managed to compile a 20 track tribute to Rick Nelson from band members to todays shining stars. $1.60 of the sale of this cd is contributed to Cancer Care.
