Not All Original
T. Rice | 05/07/2006
(1 out of 5 stars)

"Several of the recordings are definitely NOT the originals we heard on the radio in the 1950s. Pat Boone's "Love Letters in the Sand" is an "alternate cut" that never made it to the air. Gene Vincent's "Be-Bop-A-Lula" sounds like a re-recording in a style 10 to 15 years after the original. Fats Domino's "Blueberry Hill" is a concert recording with a crowd yelling in the background. The Platter's "Only You" is also a later-day re-recording when their voices weren't fresh anymore. The two CDs are not total rip-offs. There is some good stuff on them but many of the songs are just not the originals. I know. I was in Rock and Roll's first generation, 1955 to 1964."
