About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

The Drugstore's Rockin' is a generous compilation of George Hamilton IV's earliest singles, featuring 32 sides he cut during the late '50s and early '60s, before he definitively settled into a career as a straight-ahead country singer. To be sure, there's plenty of country and rockabilly here -- he picks up on Johnny Cash on "I've Got a Secret," covers Hank's "Your Cheatin' Heart" and "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry," gets into lush country-pop on his "Abilene" -- but this music does have a heavy teen-idol bent, as the collection's title indicates. This does mean that a good stretch of the comp may be so soft and sweet that it will only appeal to nostalgists, but there's enough rockabilly and pop here to keep things interesting, and throughout it all Hamilton demonstrates impressive range as a vocalist, pointing toward the longer career he had ahead of him.
