3.0 out of 5 stars Great tracklist, bad sound, 27 Feb 2008
By J. Cundey "cundog" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Firstly, the version I recieved has a slightly different - and possibly superior - tracklisting from the one shown here. My copy replaces some British skiffle/pop with authentic American rock and roll - no Tornados' 'Telstar' or Joe Brown's 'Picture Of You' for example, but Fats Domino's 'Ain't That A Shame' and Frankie Lymon's 'Why Do Fools Fall In Love' are included. The bulk of the content is identical however, and there's no denying this is classic stuff. Unfortunately, the disc suffers from a chronic case of modern mastering - the dynamics are squashed to push the volume up, and the bass and treble are boosted. This means everything sounds a bit mushy and overbearing, while the vivid mid-range which gives rock and roll its energy is lost. It's a heavy-handed approach that might work on dance music but is completely inappropriate for this material. Ah well. Probably a good disc for cruising to, but if you're serious about this music, far better to investigate some of the properly mastered compilations from labels like Ace and Rhino.

4.0 out of 5 stars GoodTrack Selection of Golden oldies, 12 Jul 2008
This is a good starter album for anybody who wishes to build up a fifies collection of songs.There are no re-recordings on this album, but i agree with Cundog that this album and most others that have digital recordings are to bright in the top end for the year.To the purist this is not original, but you will have to go a long way to get all original sounds of this year and the early sixties.Firstly they are all mono in origin.Second to get these recorded,the record companys would have to use the original master tapes recorded in the original manner.Thirdly,would'nt it be nice to have saved all our original 78's & 45's.Fourth,very early cassette's would be a good source,i have found some to be ott on price.Back to this recording, yes it is bright & in stereo, try pushing the mono button in on your amp it cuts the treble down and sounds an awful lot like it used to.Fully recomended, the only fault i found with it,the case fell to pieces!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Much too smooth, 15 Jun 2008
By James S. Johnson (West Midlands UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Just like "cundog", I felt that this consists of either re-recordings or originals which have been "polished" so that the rough, raucous and exciting sounds of the fifties have been totally submerged and we are left with only a gentle reminder of how good this music was all those years ago.
