Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
The third in the series of compilations lovingly pieced together by Rough Trade's retail division, Rock And Roll 1 builds on the success of previous collections--Electronic 01 and 25 Years Of...--with an excellent precis of firebrand rock & roll that dates from the early 1970s to the present day. There's amped-up pre-punk in the shape of Rocket from the Tombs and the Electric Eels, new-Millennial scuzz-rock in the shape of the Von Bondies and the Kills, and the odd completely bizarre avant-rock classic--e.g. the Fall's "Dr Buck's Letter", where cackling vocalist Mark E Smith reads out a list of things he never leaves home without ("Five--Amex card," he barks, "They made such a fuss giving it to me/ But I spend more time getting it turned down-ah!"). What swiftly becomes clear is that Rough Trade has a real talent for unearthing essential rarities. Legendary New York punk band Crime appear on a recording for the first time in 20 years, while on "View from Here", Detroit firebrand soul group the Gories appear to have preempted the White Stripes by approximately a decade. There are a couple of notable omissions--no Kyuss? no Black Flag? But hey, this is only Rock And Roll 1. Further chapters will surely fill in the gaps, and frankly, we can't wait. --Louis Pattison
