简介

by Bruce Eder Dion as a solo artist was initially a kind of hybrid performer, known for his teen idol image but trying for a harder and also a more advanced sound, as revealed on this album. The hits included here, &Runaround Sue,& &The Wanderer,& and &The Majestic,& are so familiar that they tend to eclipse the rest of this 14 song album -- all of the rest, however, is well-sung, -played, and -arranged, ranging from basic hard rock & roll (&Kansas City&) to smooth teen pop, which always keeps at least one foot up to the ankle in rock & roll (hence the electric guitar solo on &Could Somebody Take My Place Tonight&). &Little Star& has rated inclusion on several key collections, while &Lonely World& is perhaps the lost single off of this album, with a great beat, killer hooks, and a beautifully shaped performance by the singer and his backup vocalists. What's more, even the covers of familiar material such as &Dream Lover& and &In the Still of the Night& are performed in a style unique to Dion and are worth hearing and owning. The singer was still straddling the gap between teen idol and serious rock & roller, and between late-'50s doo wop and a harder early-'60s sound, although the more serious love songs and the surprisingly articulate guitar solo on &Kansas City& clearly showed that he was winning the musical battle for his own distinct sound. It wasn't a long jump from the repertory here to his distinctive covers of R&B classics like &Ruby Baby.&
