If cutting a CD is your dream, let Khoury show you how. Take some homegrown talent, some proven classics from the early days of Rock ‘n’ Roll and add a touch of Marty Robbins. Then book a Nashville “doo-wa” session band and pay the studio fee. Voila! You’re a star. Or maybe not. Aside from pleasing himself and his family, Khoury proves why fame eludes most of us. Nonetheless, if you’re looking for a nostalgic set of rockin’ Oldies, this CD could serve you well. —Corinne Brown
