Rick Nelson
Comment:
As if all his other accomplishments weren’t enough, Rick Nelson was also a country-rock pioneer, leading his Stone Canyon Band through a series of sessions that blended early-’70s SoCal mellow with an earthy twang and a peerless pop knack. Nelson was no cowboy-come-lately either — he’d already cleared a path by cutting straight-country albums in the ’60s, turning out terse, tight two-steps like the bayou-bound “Louisiana Man.” Moving into the ’70s, the pealing steel guitar and sweet, sunny harmonies on “One Night Stand” can stand up proud next to anything from the Poco/Eagles crowd, and Nelson even opens up the window to let in a little light from above on the gospel-tinged “Thank You Lord.”
