More Info:
A talented ballad crooner who sounded like a cross between Tennessee Ernie Ford and Frankie Laine, Virgil Holmes had a distinctive baritone that was well suited for the material he recorded, which was mainly Western themed.. It was rumored that an early version of The Four Seasons served as back-up singers on his 1961 single "Walkin' Alone" b/w "Ghost Train," released on the Atlantic label. Presented here might well be his earliest release - the single "Rock Wall Jail" b/w "My Downfall," originally released in 1959 on the Wells Records label. This rare single is presented here newly remastered for this exclusive release and finally made available in the digital domain.back to top
