From 1959 to 1964, Conway Twitty was under contract with MGM. During this time, he released a variety of rock 'n' roll and R&B cover versions and his own rock numbers. 'It's Only Make Believe' made it to the top of the pop charts and became his biggest hit,. Various regular LP versions of the album 'The Rock & Roll Story' were released on several continents. This is a reissue of a rare 10" LP, which was only released in this form in Japan at the time.
Kindly Marcel Meersmann gave us his precious original for the purpose of reproducing the original cover. In accordance with today's technological possibilities, we have added four bonus tracks to the eight titles selected at that time, carefully mastered the recordings for this limited vinyl edition and had the new version pressed on colored vinyl. 
Please, note: strictly limited to 500 copies, worldwide! And by the way: from the mid-60s, now under contract with Decca in the USA, Conway Twitty became a successful star of country music. He was elected to both the Rockabilly Hall of Fame and the Country Music Hall of Fame.
