Mickey Gilley

Not only does this collection illustrate that Mickey Gilley had a strong string of chart-topping hits (enough to open the Gilley's Saloon franchise), it also reveals that the urban cowboy leaned heavily on classic honky-tonk songwriting sensibilities. The obvious staples like "Power of Positive Drinkin'" and his rendition of "Stand By Me" are absent, but the romantic "Room Full Of Roses" and "You Don't Know Me" are sure to bring a tear to your beer.
