The Beatles
From 1962 to 1965, the Beatles made 52 appearances on the BBC, recording live-in-the-studio performances of both their official releases and several dozen songs that they never issued on disc. This magnificent two-disc compilation features 56 of these tracks, including 29 covers of early rock, R&B, soul, and pop tunes that never appeared on their ...

by
The Beatles
When the Beatles' albums were reissued on CD in 1987, the group seized the opportunity to standardize their catalog internationally, choosing to release the British version of their LPs on CD in every territory throughout the world. From their standpoint, it made sense creatively, since these were the albums they intended to make, and it also made ...

Sam the Sham & The Pharaohs
On this 2004 two-fer, Collectables for some unknown reason switched the order of release, putting Sam the Sham & the Pharaohs' second album, 1966's Li'l Red Riding Hood, before their first album, 1965's Wooly Bully. Apart from that head scratcher, this is a great re-release by a band that is too often written off as a mere one-hit wonder (as if ...

by
Wanda Jackson
Like many other young recording artists of the late 1950s, especially those on major labels, Wanda Jackson was encouraged to straddle musical genres as a hedge against changing trends. She was an accomplished rockabilly singer, but Capitol Records must have worried about how long rockabilly was going to stay popular, so Wanda Jackson has the ...

Wanda Jackson
Ace Records' Queen of Rockabilly is such a good idea for a Wanda Jackson collection that it's astonishing that it didn't get put together and released until 2000 -- or that Bear Family Records, which is no slouch when it comes to distilling down certain aspects and angles of American country and rock & roll stars, didn't do it first. It should ...

It almost defies belief that there could be an Elvis Presley rock & roll comp that doesn't include anything from Sun Records, so that right there is a good sign that RCA's 2006 comp Elvis Rock -- part of a trilogy of three theme-based compilations that also includes Elvis Country and Elvis Inspirational -- may not deliver all that the title ...

Casey Kasem: America's Top 10 Through Years - The 50's
(2001)

by
Various Artists
The '50s edition of Casey Kasem's America's Top 10 is typical for the series. It moves confidently through twenty hits of the era, skimming the play lists of oldies stations everywhere for a rousing collection with none of the filler so often found in this sort of release. Beginning with the freewheeling blurt of Bobby Darin's "Splish Splash," ...

Elvis Presley
This is a radio performance of Elvis Presley from the late '50s. The song selection is terrific, but the recording quality is dodgy, bootleg style. For those who need everything by the King, this may be essential, but for those who aren't, it's not. Thom Jurek, All Music Guide

Johnny Rivers & His L.A. Boogie Band
Johnny Rivers was no stranger to live albums by the time he released this 1973 show taped at the close of a European tour. His first four albums were all recorded live at the Los Angeles club the Whisky A Go-Go in the mid-'60s, and from those albums five singles went into the national Top Ten. After 1967, Rivers' recording career basically dried ...

by
Mitch Ryder
In his brief liners to this disc, Ryder describes this as a live album cut in a studio, just running though their regular set of the time. The result is a session with longer-than-usual intros and soloing and a looseness that usually doesn't happen on a studio recording. Mixing up a set between angry Ryder originals and severely reworked R&B ...

While Varese Sarabande's The British Invasion Box certainly isn't a thoroughly comprehensive or complete overview of the mid-'60s boom of all things English in the world of rock & roll, it's certainly an entertainingly idiosyncratic examination of the period. Disc one, 25 Hits from the British Invasion, stretches that title more than a bit -- in ...
