Willis, Hal
Ballad Of A Teenage Queen
Hal Willis and his singing wife Ginger, were Canadian country musicians. When they were hired in 1956 for several tours
opening for Elvis Presley, Hal got a taste for it and began to compose and record rockabilly songs. With "My Pink
Cadillac" and "Bop-A-Dee Bop-A-Doo" he achieved two classics in this genre. He also successfully composed for other
artists such as Patsy Cline, Wilburn Brothers, Charlie Walker, Jim Reeves and Bobby Helms. Along the way, he recorded
cover versions of current hits for budget companies, or produced radio programs for the U.S. Army at Sam Phillips
Nashville Studio. In the 1960s he finally found success on the charts, where he had his biggest hit with "The
Lumberjack". This is the first compilation of Hal Willis' best recordings from the 1950s and 60s, including two
unreleased songs.
