Synopsis

Album Description
2009 two CD collection from one of the leading British groups during the Skiffle period of the 1950s. The Vipers Skiffle Group was important in the careers of radio and television presenter Wally Whyton, record producer George Martin, and several members of The Shadows. Their second single, 'Don't You Rock Me Daddy-O', produced by Martin, reached #10 in the UK Singles Chart in early 1957. The group came into direct competition with Lonnie Donegan on the rival Pye label, who imitated Whyton's arrangements but had the bigger hits, both with 'Don't You Rock Me Daddy-O' and with its follow-up, 'Cumberland Gap'. However, the Vipers' version of the latter song again made the UK Top 10, and was followed by their last chart hit, 'Streamline Train'. George Martin later commented that working with the Vipers gave him important experience in working with an informally trained but enthusiastic group of musicians. 47 tracks. Performance.
