Thank you soooo much! Rick Nelson was my first celebrity crush. I remember making sure I was parked in front of the tv when this show would come on. Please remember there are two sides to that story. Chis was not the sweet misguided woman you are portraying. There is a several reasons her family took her children away from her. The court records are available online.
I've never seen such a handsome man as Rick Nelson !!! He was a good singer both in Rock n,'Roll and romantic songs. He was a good song writer too. He had a very controlling father and was always vey attached to his family. He had an unfortunate marriage. RIP.
Rick never received the credit he deserved for his music; especially the hits from the fifties and sixties. The guy really knew how to sing a song. As for his personal life, well, we're all human. We miss you, Rick.
I would say, because he had such wonderful talented parents. Ricky as a singer, In my humble opinion was second only to Elvis. I would say he tried to conform to his parents lifestyle, and at the same time wanting to do his own thing. Ricky could sing Rock n' Roll, and Country music, and was a great Ballad singer. I saw Ricky in concert just before he died in the plane crash. We saw his twin sons in concert twice at Casino Rama, Ontario, Canada.
In late August 1977, a week or so after Elvis Presley's death, I was in Lake Tahoe, Nev. were Rick Nelson was soon scheduled to perform. A poster of him, on the Casino wall, showed him dressed like Elvis & we were told that Col. Tom Parker had already approached Rick to take over, as the new "Elvis"! The partnership never occurred, but could have made Rick Nelson a 'superstar"! p.s. (I watched "Ozzie & Harriet" from Day 1, in 1952 & loved it!)R.I.P. Rick!
It's almost impossible to feel sorry for someone who made millions and wasted a lot of it. He was lucky, good looking, nice voice and presence, etc. He should have been Gay then he would have been even more famous.
@@ronfowlermusic Wasn't he in kinda bad financial shape at the end(for a famous celebrity)? These famous celebrities who make millions and then squander it on silly lavish spending and in some cases wind up broke. They could save just 10% of their earnings and live a comfortable life after their stardom fades.
@Jerry Lee He didn't squander his mo ey, his ex-wife Kristen did that. That's why he had to stay on the road. This is direct information from his twin sons
Gorgeous looker singer actor...
"You see you can't please everyone so you gotta please yourself"
Ricky's Plane, a DC-3 , had a gasoline cabin heater which was faulty,
It malfunctioned and that was the cause of the planes crash......
Ricky Nelson was a great beauty. That in itself is a curse.

Thanks so much for this. I knew absolutely nothing about Ricky Nelson before, so this is greatly appreciated. 🙂
Most of this is false

Poor Little Fool was not his first single.
No Im walking was
@@ricknelsonfan thank you. You and I know more about him than the idiots that make these trash videos.
Magyar fordításban volna lehetöség olvasni?🤔Köszönöm!
Thanks So Much !
RICKEY NELSON WAS SWEDISH GOOD LOOKING PEOPLE ❤❤❤
RICKEY? RICKEY? NIELSON?
Ozzie decided to put Tracy into an incubator not rick and the wedding was insisted by ozzie to keep his businesses image "squeaky clean"
No mention of Leslie Petit?
Demolition Darby?
Your timeline and some of the facts are wrong.
This is just slanderous and ridiculous
So Ozzie's easy-going attitude was just a put-on in front of the camera.
Rick and Dave chose to be part of the show. No one forced them to do it.
In late August 1977, a week or so after Elvis Presley's death, I was in Lake Tahoe, Nev.

no, Colonel Parker was out of touch by that time. He made a mess of Elvis' career in the 70's.
I took my then girlfriend to see a show in Houston in either 1980 or 1981. Ricky Nelson was only 40 years old - but he looked much older.
Ricky Nelson was not performing in 1980. That was Rick Nelson, who always looked young.

Wasted a lot of it? How?

@@jerrylee8261 Rick didn't throw his money away. The divorce bankrupted him. Kris took nearly everything he had.
@@ronfowlermusic OK. It seems it would have been a 50-50 split.
To make my point, tho. Mike Tyson.

is there any rumour or the like that Ricky was bi sexual and did he have any male sexual encounters.
keep dreaming
