In 1957, he began a long and successful career as a popular recording artist. He sadly died in a plane crash in 1985. No copyright infringement intended. All shared from You Tube with thanks. R.I.P.

    His album served the purpose of helping me become a goog singer in the choir of my high school years, '65, '66, '67. Will never forget any of the songs he released.

      I'm mid 70's and fortunate enough to see him twice close up.
      Small venues in Akron, Ohio.
      He arrived late one time. He actually apologized to the audience and then bought a round of drinks.
      I was driving home from my job when I heard of his demise . Had to pull off the road to compose myself.

He can’t fault it in any shape or form the way he presented himself the way he sang the way he did things his old band. It was brilliant, the whole lot of them they were brilliant, and that’s what I missed today. Is that sort of talent today’s talent is great. Yes but not like back then back then is brilliant.

    These were the days when us teenagers were blessed to have good CLEAN beautiful songs with meaning. Today the junk that is mostly out especially "rap". It's really misspelled when it should be spelled "Crap!" I miss the 50s and 60s. I had my own rock band in the 60s. It was called "The Crimson Blues". We were blessed to rub shoulders with Jimi Hendrix, The Blues Magoos, Jim Morrison. This is just a few. In 1968, this crazy fun woman came up to me, after I finished playing the drums "Wipe Out", and hugged and kissed me because she loved the way I played the drums. Her name was Janis Joplin! Such memories! I'll be 74 soon. I still have my drums I bought new in 1964. I miss those early days!!

      good memories.
      sadly you met those that left us so quickly.
      i was an '80 teen.
      but grew up with oldies from across the spectrum (nobody said genre then) granny loved elvis, mother loved do-whop, mo-town & folk songs like peter,paul&mary , she loved mr nelsons songs.
      pop liked jim crocre, CCR, paul simon & art Garf. , lynard skynrd, motown, john cash, and after a long seperation. we was together in 1989 & i cranked up some G-n-R and he liked them.
      and none of us liked rap.
      there are a few songs out of millions that rap as lyrics fit the song structure & is a compliment to the song but most of the rap songs are an attempt to mask lack of ability to sing. imho

    I started listening to his music back in 2019 when I was 15 or 16 when I watched a Netflix series called The end of the f-ing world where they used his song Lonesome Town. I was instantly hooked! I also have a huge crush on him. I’m almost 21 now and still vibing to his music 💗

    One of the best voices ever of that era….. I agree his talent was underrated. He got his message across to the naysayers with Garden Party.

    According to his older brother and hit sons, Rick never used any harmful drugs. So, you can forget about Rick dying of a drug problem. He didn't use heroine or cocaine.

    He died in 1985 at the age of 45. Its really a shame that he died so young. IMO he was the epitome of good looks. It's hard not to stare at his gorgeous face in this vid.

    This boy, Ricky Nelson, was a peach, the kind any parent would want for a son-in-law. Clean cut and very handsome, he came from a top family who had their own TV show during the 50's, in which Ricky and his older brother David featured. As an 11-year old boy, he made his film debut in 'The story of three loves' in 1951 starring Kirk Douglas, Pier Angeli and Leslie Caron. He began his singing career sometime in the 2nd half of the 50's and was a rage with all the boys and girls growing up during that era, who hummed his tunes and used their vocals singing Ricky's hits at local amateurs. In 1960, as a young adult, he made his debut in "Rio Bravo" with John Wayne, Dean Martin and Angie Dickinson. His fame did not wane during the 60's and he charmed his listeners with one hit after another. Sadly, Ricky's life was snuffed out in a plane crash that left his family, his wife and kids and all his fans, worldwide, stunned. Ricky Nelson is still popular and loved even to this day.

      How lovely to see Ricky Nelson after all these years for me - beautiful voice and so handsome. I'm going back to my school days quite a long time ago! So, so so sorry - I didn't know about the terrible plane crash which took his life so tragically - very sorry. But may his beautiful songs continue to be played. ❤l

    Rick(y) Nelsons parents had a number one hit in 1935 with a song " And then Some ". His father fronted his own band Ozzie Nelson & his Orchestra. His mother was the featured singer in the band. Ricky had number one's with 'Poor little Fool" and "Travelin' Man' . His twin sons Matthew and Gunner had a number one in 1990 with a song ( Can't live without your ) Love and Affection. That therefore makes the Nelson family - I think - the only family in history to have number one hits over three generations. I am now 82 and he was my idol back in the day even more so than Elvis. Personally I see a striking similarity facially between the two especially around the eyes and mouth. However, what great music back in that era more than 60 years ago. I would bet they won't be playing today's music in 60 years time
