Kevin G. (kkg-ct) from NEW FAIRFIELD, CT
Reviewed on 6/17/2017...

Terrific compilation of the familiar and truly new, not sure I've heard 'Flying Saucer Rock and Roll' before. Rich diversity of artists with hefty helpings of Carl Perkins. The SUN sound is a hybrid of twangy electric proto country meeting blues ,very tasty!

CD Reviews

Great Price-Great Tracks!

KC | Northern CA | 11/01/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Hard to beat 60 great early rock 'n roll tracks for less than $20 dollars. Now, if you have Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis and Johnnny Cash's Greatest Hits (from Sun or others), you will be getting duplicates on about 20 tracks but that doesn't diminish the value much here from $20 - if you own the big Sun box set, there's nothing new here so you can skip these CD's.

There is no Elvis but come on, you should have a couple Elvis collections (after all, you only have about 200 CD's to choose from :-) ... plus there are some other Elvisish or flat-out Elvis impressions to choose from on these CD's.

The rest of the tracks from one-shot wonders to early rock 'n roll pioneers are all nice excellent tracks. There are a small handful of country & r&b blues tracks - all nice. There aren't many tracks from Sun's female artists but the few on here are all excellent.

This is a great price to fill in your collection."
