This compilation presents a foot-tapping set of Cliffs rock n roll work from the 50s and 60s. It mainly contains studio recordings, most of which Id expect serious Cliff fans to own already, but there are three live tracks that make this CD worth getting: Thatll Be The Day, Oh Boy Medley, and Whole Lotta Shakin Goin On. The live tracks really put you in the period, with Cliff and band playing over hysterically screaming fans. However, the live tracks are scattered through the play list, giving the listener bursts of 50s Cliff hysteria, when really it would work better if the live tracks were together in sequence. The inclusion of Elvis numbers gives a nod to Cliffs early British Elvis ambitions.
