9:23 PM V. A. - 1955-1962 - British Beat Before the Beatles |

There was British rock before the Beatles, but it wasn't particularly great, it was often stiff and stilted, sounding tentative. Still, there were some gems amidst the mediocrity, songs by Billy Fury, Cliff Richard, or Johnny Kidd & the Pirates, and the best thing about this seven-disc series is that it captures both the good and the bad, providing a thorough retrospective of this little-acknowledged (especially to American collectors) period of rock & roll (All Music Guide).
