All My Best is a 1985
Ricky Nelson album. Although the record is a collection of
greatest hits, it is not a compilation but a new studio recording. Nelson conceived the album for his own Silver Eagle label and promoted the record himself on late-night television.
Nelson recruited the
Jordanaires to provide backing vocals, as well as familiar session musicians.[1] Since Nelson's session musicians had not performed the songs for many years, some differences from the original recordings are audible on the album.[2]
^Richard Carlin, Country Music: A Biographical Dictionary 2014 - All My Best, MCA 6163. "Originally released in 1985 by Rick on his own Silver Eagle label and hawked on late-night television, this is a nice collection of remakes featuring The Jordanaires on backup vocals."
^Sheree Homer - Rick Nelson, Rock 'n' Roll Pioneer 2012 - Page 129 "The first version of 'Do You Know What I Mean,' which had been issued on Silver Eagle's All My Best, contained a mistake. Haskell explained, "I listened to the record, and I said, 'The drummer Ricky Intveld's got an extra half a beat in there, ...'""
