The Wham of That Memphis Man (1963); originally issued on Fraternity Records (Fraternity LP F-1014); the digital re-masters embodied in this compilation: Ace Records UK (2006)

"The first of the guitar-hero records is also one of the best. And for perhaps the last time, the singing on such a disc is worthy of the guitar histrionics. Lonnie Mack bent, stroked, and modified the sound of six strings in ways that baffled his contemporaries and served as a guide to future players. His brash arrangements insure that [the album] remains a showcase for songs, not just a platform for showing off. Mack, who produced this album, has never been given credit for the dignified understatement he brought to his workouts." /Guterman, The 100 Best Rock 'n' Roll Records of All Time, Citadel, 1992/
