On the Rebound

"On the Rebound" is a 1961 instrumental by pianist Floyd Cramer. In contrast to most of Cramer's work, which consisted mostly of countrypolitan ballads, "On the Rebound" was an uptempo rock and roll instrumental. It made No. 4 in the US[2] and No. 1 in the UK.[3]

In addition to "On the Rebound," the set contains a Cramer original in "Last Date" fashion called "I Can Just Imagine," and another new ditty, "First Impression." Also here are "Tammy," "Danny Boy" and "Alma Mater." And they are all played by Cramer with his marvelously commercial touch."
