The Golden Age of American Rock ‘n’ Roll Vol.10
The Golden Age of American Rock ‘n’ Roll Vol.10
Customer Review: Together with Vol 6 the best selection of them all!
Of the complete series of the Golden Age of American Rock & Roll
(11 Volumes) this one (Vol. 10) and the Vol. 6 are without any doubt
the best of the whole series. If you like the real “raw” authentic
Rock and Roll stuff (not rockabilly) this tenth issue holds a lot
of it. Most of these real rockers were unfamiliar to me and were
probably never issued in Western Europe before although some may
have been released in the UK. Here we have the female Elvis back in
1956 with the incredible rockin’ Will You Williym, You Can Have Her-
Roy Hamilton; Believe Me-Royal Teens (yeah, those who sang Short
Shorts); the original Mona Lisa by Carl Mann; Gilee- Sony Spencer;
We Told You Not To Marry by Titus Turner which is an answer song to
Lloyd Price’s I’m Gonna Get Married; Why-The Cues; Sugaree- Rusty
York and the first success by Clarence “Frogman” Henry Ain’t Got No
Home an incredible rocker that makes you jump around and play over
and over. I just saw Clarence sing this song again in You Tube in 2004
almost 50 years later. It just sounds the same…! Half of the 30
songs are fast rockers so if you’re a fan of the “real” stuff, don’t
let this chance pass by. Remember Vol. 6 is similar and as wonderful
as this one.
