CD Reviews
ShaNaNa Rocks'
Alex J. Ziolkowski | 01/18/2009

"True fans of ShaNaNa will appreciate this vintage CD of their first 2 albums. You can see how much the group evolved since their early days, the original line up was more of a street tough looking group you would see the likes of in New York. The harmonies are quite good and they stay pretty true to the covers of the original artists, its great that this CD was released. You can definately hear the difference between the studio album and the live recording, as well as the change in sound with the line up changes. Its fun sounding and makes you remember when things were simpler and less complicated then they are now. So just sit back and enjoy""
Listener review of Sha Na Na Rock & Roll is here to stay
E. Mulle | S. Florida | 02/23/2010

"The CD is a double album of Sha Na Na (Rock and Roll Is Here To Stay & their self titled album which includes another 14 tracks) I bought this CD solely to get the original transfer from the vinyl album of Rock and Roll is Here to Stay, which is long out of print and very hard to find. The cuts on the CD are the original cuts from the vinyl record, and are worth well worth the price on their own. Consider the addtional album "Sha Na Na' a bonus. If you are looking to get your first CD of Sha Na Na this is the one to get. If you have only a few cuts on other CD's or dont have the studio version cuts of Rock and Roll is here to stay, this is the CD to get. In many cases, I think the Sha Na Na cuts on Rock & Roll are better than the original artists."

Finally, Sha Na Na's best on cd

"Finally, Sha Na Na's best live set, on cd.
It was a great live album I bought many years ago as a lp but since the cd took over somewhere in the eighties, this lp was never available as a cd.
You wonder why because it's Sha Na Na at their best with great versions of 'Duke of Earl' and 'Tell Laura I love her'.
For all you out there, that may have doubts if it still sounds as you might remember when you where young, it does.
