Smith & Co

OK,I hear you saying, “not another Rock ‘n’ Roll” collection, but have a second look and, much better, have a listen to both CD’s. Whenever I listen to a rock ‘n’ roll compilation it is inevitably spoiled with soppy ballads whose only connection with the genre is that they come from the same era. For this reason the “Just about as good as it Gets!” team have put together 64 non-stop, Red Hot rockers that swing like hell from start to end. Absolutely no ballads! And whilst the big names are featured, in the true style of this series you will find it jam packed with gems from artists long forgotten, if in fact they were ever known to but a few dedicated aficionados.

Once again, a wonderful addition to the series that will not disappoint!
