Why I bought it.:
I bought because Volumes I and II because they contained some fabulous hits from my pre-teen and teenager days. At Amazon.com, I also did not have to buy the entire set of 5 volumes; like I would have to buy from another vendor.
ROCK INSTRUMENTAL CLASSICS / VOL. 1-5:
At one time these were available in a boxed set.Guess who put it out,"R-H-I-N-O",I rest my case!!!However,you can still purchase them individually but please hurry,and do so,before "R-H-I-N-O" finds out!!! If "R-H-I-N-O" knows these are still on the market they will surely pull them off.Therefore,turning them into collector's items!!! Once,these are,items of desire, a feeding frenzy will occur and the seedy underbelly of those will surface,tearing at our funds,separating us from our money...
Outstanding Collection:
Someone has put together the most memorable instrumental classic rock tunes of the decade. The quality is excellent and, with a good sound system, you can rock your world like you never could in the 50's.
OUT OF 18 TRACTS 14 ARE A MUST IF YOU LIKE THE "BEAT".:
OUT OF 5000 SONGS. IN MY DATA BASE, THIS CD IS ONE OF MY TOP 30 CD'S. AND ONE OF MY TOP 10 GUITAR CD'S. THE GUITAR INTRUMENTALS PUT THE MODERN TO SHAME. IF YOU LIKE THIS TYPE OF INSTRUMENTAL GUITAR, LOOK AT DUANE EDDY AND CHET ATKINS CD'S.
History repeats itself:
When I saw the song list for this CD I was blown away! It looked exactly like a stack of 45's I remembered having on my first record changer way back in pre-historic times. So naturally, since half of them have been have been stolen, broken, or played to death, I had to have this CD. I was not disappointed. You won't be either, especially if you want to hear what rock and roll was like besides the "big names". The Rhino booklet that is included is very informative about the songs as well as the era.
