For those who like their Charlie rockin’, Lonely Weekends/A Time For Tears is a great place to start. This recently released 2-fer serves up 22 hot tunes from the Sun Records era that were later compiled on two early 70’s albums, Lonely Weekends (Sun 110) and A Time For Tears (Sun 123). Self-penned classics abound, including his first big hit, the driving "Lonely Weekends," the poignant "Sittin’ and Thinkin’, which chronicles the bone-weary sadness of an alcoholic, and the bouncy, sadistic pleasure a former lover displays when hearing his -ex has been dumped in "Finally Found Out." Under no circumstances should you miss "Who Will the Next Fool Be."
