Search - Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, Buddy Holly :: Kings of Rock & Roll

Import only 3-CD set, features a disc a piece from Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis and Buddy Holly. Rock'n'Roll exploded onto the landscape of the mid-1950s like a gangsta rapper invading a vicar's tea party. One minute, America was watching Doris Day movies and singing along to tame ditties like 'How Much Is That Doggie In The Window'. The next, the radio was throbbing to the big beat and rampant sexuality of Rock'n'Roll. Pundits predicted and prayed that it was just a passing dance craze, but fifty years on, rock is still the sound of teenage rebellion. Here are three of the leaders of that revolution - unique American voices who wrote and recorded the anthems of a generation. Spectrum. 2006.
