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 70s 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."
