Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars The weakest Sun Singles collection........1998-07-23

"The Complete Sun Singles Volume 4" is the fourth of six CD sets which collect all the single masters ("A" and "B" sides) released under Sam C. Phillips' Sun and Phillips International record labels. Sun fans should hear every volume in the collection; there's no better way to follow the rise and fall of Phillips' recordings. But for anyone familiar with the handful of Sun/Phillips International hits like "Blue Suede Shoes," "I Walk The Line," "Great Balls of Fire," and "Raunchy," and an interest in hearing more, only a few of the volumes are essential listening.

Phillips' success prior to the period covered by Volume 4 (1959-62) came from eschewing popular trends in search of a new sound. By 1959, the music industry popularized the new sound with choral flourishes, sax breaks and lyrics about teen love and angst. Rather than challenging this new trend as he had the old, Phillips instead adapted it in search of a hit in the new market. It didn't work, and th! e listener to "The Complete Sun Singles Volume 4" shouldn't be surprised to find that best songs on the set are those which hearken back to the sparser Sun Sound.

The nature of "The Complete Sun Singles Collection" says it all: if it was released under the Sun or Phillips International label, it will be on one of the collection's six volumes. With that sort of criteria, the listener can expect to hear some songs which would otherwise have no place on any collection (many of the tracks on Volume 4), as well as others which ought to appear more frequently (notably, on Volume 4, "Uncle Jonah's Place" by Harold Dorman). Volume 4, unfortunately (for Sun's history and for the listener), contains more of the latter and only a handful of the former. For the Sun enthusiast, listening to Volume 4 is a painful way to prove why Sun's best recordings came by not following the popular trends of other labels. The casual Sun listener might want to forgo this set.
