Rock ‘n’ Roll Revolution – Elvis Presley, Bill Haley, Ricky Nelson, Fats Domino and More (10 CDs) DOCUMENT

This 10-CD-BOX presents the most successful ORIGINAL ALBUMS of the biggest Rock’n’Roll stars from the years 1954 to 1957. Everybody knows the big hits that came from America to post-war Europe in the mid-1950s: “Rock around the Clock” – “Shake, Rattle and Roll” – “Blueberry Hill” – “Blue Suede Shoes” – “Tutti Frutti” – “Honey Hush” “Let’s Have a Party” – “Rock Billy Boogie” – “Blue Jean Bop” – “Ready Teddy” – “Oh Boy” – “That’s Be the Day” “School Day” – “Sittin ‘in the Balcony” – “Brown Eyed Handsome Man” – “Be Bop Baby” … and so on, and so on. This a collection not only consist of the hits, but also hides many gems and almost forgotten rarities that did not make it into the charts. A pleasure, not only for collectors – but also a journey of discovery through the rock & roll and rockabilly scene of the postwar youth.
