No weak spots, no fillers and his voice is in a tune I really like, a warm & rough voice. The Elektra years were his last great period, after them it wen´t downhill (recordwise) imo.

The weakest track for me is probably 'Personality', a song that doesn't really suit him.

I had this album as a vinyl way back in80s , never seen as a cd. On Youtube is Jerry´s "Milkcow Blues Boogie", which I never seen or heard before. The guitarist must be James Burton, his style has stayed coherently same from the Ricky Nelson Imperial recordings.

No, it was the full 1st album (minus a few ad-libs!) + a few tracks from both the 2nd & 3rd albums.
Can anyone here check the credits on the first album? I seem to recall James Burton only being on 3 or 4 songs.

I've just found it online:
James Burton only appears on 'Rockin' My Life Away', 'Number One Lovin' Man', 'I Like It Like That' and ' Who Will The Next Foll Be'; and the acoustic guitar solo on 'Every Day I Have To Cry' is by Kenny Lovelace!
