Popis - LET ME TELL YOU BABY ITS CALLED ROCK'N'R [VINYL]:
Before Cliff slipped into a smart suit and tie and clipped his hair, there was a brief period when TVs Oh Boy and radios Saturday Club featured just enough wild rockers to keep us watching and listening to them . after all, those shows were all there was. Cliff and the Drifters were stars of both programmes and thanks to their almost instant baptism via live shows in theatres following the chart success of "Move It", they were soon belting out quality RocknRoll on the airwaves.
In 1958, while teenagers were regarded as a passing fad from which they would soon recover and grow up . and until pop music became historically interesting, the BBC had an unfortunate policy of saving for posterity everything in their output, except the actual recordings of live programmes. These tapes were ceremoniously wiped or taped over to save storage space and cost. Meanwhile, every memo, written instruction, and probably, stationery requisition, was kept and carefully filed away. Thus we can read exactly what the Director-General thought of Saturday Club, but not hear much of what it sounded like . unless some enterprising music aficionado preserved a tape or copied the broadcast off the air.
One such fan of country music, RocknRoll and instrumental music was BBC engineer, Bernie Andrews. He engineered, and later produced, many Saturday Club sessions, felt that history was being made and that the recordings he helped create should be preserved. Until his death in 2010 he continued to record off-air many BBC programmes so that he and others could hear them again. From his archive created in the 1950s and early 60s come the remarkable recordings on this CD set that show what a great rocker Cliff Richard was. Many of the recordings seem superior to the released records for energy and sheer enthusiasm. Cliff was luck to have a great band from the start of his professional career . a driving rhythm section that soon became stars in their own right.
A detailed booklet with notes by respected journalist and historian Rob Finnis tells the story of Cliffs RocknRoll years and is illustrated with rare photographs and memorabilia from the era. For historic reasons we have created two CDs containing tracks from Saturday Club:
CD 1 features musical content from high-quality recordings plus some tracks of historical interest that were taped off-air (and are therefore of a lesser quality), these have been gathered at the end of CD1 and do not appear on CD 2. On CD 2 we have included the music together with the introductions and interviews just as they were heard in the original broadcasts.
