A talented ballad crooner who sounded like a cross between Tennessee Ernie Ford and Frankie Laine, Virgil Holmes had a distinctive baritone that was well suited for the material he recorded, which was mainly Western themed.. It was rumored that an early version of The Four Seasons served as back-up singers on his 1961 single “”Walkin” Alone”” b/w “”Ghost Train,”” released on the Atlantic label. Presented here might well be his earliest release – the single “”Rock Wall Jail”” b/w “”My Downfall,”” originally released in 1959 on the Wells Records label. This rare single is presented here newly remastered for this exclusive release and finally made available in the digital domain.
