Let's Think About Luman CD

Bob Luman's Let's Think About Living was one of the catchiest hits of 1960 – a chart marker all around the world and a record that should have set the singer up for a lengthy
career at the top.
Unfortunately for Bob he received his call up to the US Army just as the record was breaking and could not fully promote any of his excellent follow-ups due to being in the military for nearly two years.
Let's Think About Luman collects the A and B-sides of 11 singles, along with all of the tracks from Bob's 1960 album that were not originally issued as 45s.
All except four of these tracks feature accompaniment from Nashvilles A-team of musicians – the same ones who played on hits by Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, Johnny Tillotson, Patsy Cline, the Everly Brothers and scores more.
As an artist affiliated with Acuff-Rose Music, Luman also had access to the work of some of the best songwriters of the era, among them John D Loudermilk, Hank Williams, Don Gibson and the prolific husband and wife team of Boudleaux and Felice Bryant – all of whose work is featured here.
