ABOUT ROBBIN THOMPSON
Robbin Thompson has a unique claim to history. He was one of the only performers to ever actually sing in front of Bruce Springsteen. That was in the early '70's when he was lead singer in an early Springsteen group called Steel Mill.
Thompson's career and noteworthiness, however, extend far beyond those roots. In the years since, he has released 8 albums, won THE AMERICAN SONG FESTIVAL twice, written songs with EAGLES bassist Timothy B.Schmit, and established himself as a gifted performer, songwriter, and studio vocalist.
THE VINYL YEARS includes songs from three of Thompson's previous lp's. ROBBIN THOMPSON, recorded in 1976, ROBBIN THOMPSON, STEVE BASSETT "TOGETHER", recorded in 1978, and BETTER LATE THAN NEVER, released in 1985.
ALL OF THOMPSON'S 1ST LP IS INCLUDED ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL "SWEET VIRGINIA BREEZE", WHICH IS CONSIDERED BY SOME TO BE THE "UNOFFICIAL STATE SONG OF VIRGINIA"

I love my CD. I had the album and wore it out. I was so happy to find it again on CD. I loved it and it takes be back to a time in my life that was a sweet as the Virgina Breeze. Thank you Robbin you are wonderful and CD Baby for saving my special time. I still think it should be Virginia's song.

I had lost my vinyl of the first album and was not disappointed when I listened to this CD after so many years. The album was so tight, his singing was great and the songs are well-written. It was every bit as good as many other pop singer-songwriter albums of its time and still baffles me that Robbin didn't achieve the national popularity he deserved. But don't get it for its nostalgia value-it's a great album at any time. I also always like volume-this has 75-plus minutes...more than your money's worth.
