Product Description:

2016 two CD collection of rare b-sides of British singles spanning the years 1957-1962. "When I first became interested in Pop music, back in the late 50s, my pocket money wouldn't stretch to records so I had to try and blag what I could from sundry uncles, aunts and cousins. The trouble was, their un-wanted oldies were invariably either cracked old Embassy 78s or ancient, pre-R&R crooners/dancebands/novelty items, so my embryonic 'record col-lection' was crap! A few years later, when I started earning money of my own (eleven-and-six a week - my first paper round!), I began to hang around local junk shops, where you could pick up old 45s for a couple of bob each. And this was where my obsession with B-sides began. Back then, I couldn't afford to waste money on records which didn't have two good sides... consequently, once I'd begun collecting seriously, I had a rack of 'special' 45s whose flips I preferred to their designated top decks. Some of these I'm delighted to share with you on this compilation, which presents a generous six dozen of the finest British Killer B's issued between 1957 and 1962. As you'll hear, many of these were wholly wasted as flips; several are long-forgotten goodies which were tacked onto the backs of significant hits, a couple even dented the UK charts under their own steam, while others simply appeared on the flips of obscurities which disappeared without a trace, nowadays mourned by just a handful of sad old vinyl junkies.
