FRED NEIL Trav'lin Man: The Early Singles (2008 UK limited edition
12-track LP pressed on 180gram VIRGIN VINYL - as the
author of standards including 'The Dolphins', 'Everybody's Talkin'' and
'The Other Side of This Life' Fred Neil needs no introduction to music
fans. But before becoming a folksinger and profound influence on Bob
Dylan, Tim Buckley, John Sebastian and others, he worked as a
jobbing singer, songwriter and session musician around New York. His
early songs were recorded by artists including Buddy Holly and Roy
Orbison, but his own six pop and rockabilly singles, released between
1957 and 1961, sold in tiny quantities and have rarely been heard
since. They are gathered here for the first time ever, offering a
fascinating and historically important insight into one of the most
celebrated singer-songwriters of all time. Presented in sealed &
stickered picture sleeve)
