Alongside essential classics such as “Who Slapped John?”, “Baby Blue”, “Say Mama” and “She She Little Sheila”, the collection explores the breadth of Gene’s repertoire with “Unchained Melody”, “Rocky Road Blues”, “Git It”, “Over The Rainbow” and “Pistol Packin’ Mama”. The programme also includes “Jumps, Giggles And Shouts”, “Flea Brain”, “Wild Cat” and plenty more, showcasing the distinctive vocal style and restless rock ’n’ roll energy that made Gene Vincent such an enduring influence.

With 34 tracks spanning seven years of EP releases across three countries, this CD is an excellent addition to any rock ’n’ roll collection.
