The best single CD of 50s Rock. Well worth the price. May 12, 2003 By RicR2
The best single CD of 50s Rock, and 25 songs too! Well worth the price.

All songs are original hits by original artists.

Of 55 CDs of 1950s songs that I own, this is easily the best.

1/4/06 Update: Whoever put this collection together did more than simply pick songs based on sales charts, because two of my personal favorites that didn't chart very high ("Love Potion No. 9" and "Shout") are included.

Great Music Nov 01, 2009 By A. Webb
I purchased this CD for a fall get-together of a fun, energetic group of my husband's high school classmates (class of '57). As they all turned 70 years of age this year, I thought a group birthday party/BBQ would be fun. The CD was perfect. I noticed them all singing along at various times during the evening. I think there might have been a little dancing, too. I am totally satisfied with this CD.

Ultimate Rock and Roll of the 50's Feb 03, 2010 By J. Kirkley
I actually bought this CD for my father and on Christmas I downloaded it to my ipod...so many classic 50's songs that we all love and remember. Takes me back to my childhood nights listening to my parents with all of their friends...

Very Good But With Quality Questions Jul 06, 2009 By Roy F. Johnson
This certainly seems to be a good selection of original artists and original hits. However, I noted a few quality matters.

On "Since I Don't Have You", there is a faint glitch toward the end. I've heard this on two different copies of this CD.

"La Bamba" cuts off abruptly. Other copies of this song may also have this, but I noticed it here.

"Shout" has a tic, the kind of sound you get from a vinyl record.

There may be other quality questions. I haven't reviewed all of the tunes carefully since I didn't need all of them.

Some people might think I'm being picky. Maybe I just notice more because I've done a lot of editing to remove noise when transferring from vinyl to CD. In my opinion, all songs on published CDs should have been carefully edited.

FYI: I'm a record collector of 50 years and a sometimes deejay.

rock n roll daddy-o Dec 27, 2010 By aaron
WELL CATS AND CHICKS, THE BEST STAX ON WAX AIN'T THIS, BUT IT'S PRETTY GOOD. USUALLY NOT A FAN OF 'COLLECTIBLES' COMPANY WHO PUT THIS TOGETHER, BUT ON THIS, THEY GOT IT RIGHT,SOMEWHAT. I SAY SOMEWHAT BECAUSE, YOU CAN'T ALWAYS GET WHAT U WANT, BUT IT IS AN OVERALL GOOD C.D. THE SOUND QUALITY IS GOOD, CLEAR..THE SONG SELECTIONS RANGE FROM 'IN THE STILL OF THE NIGHT' A CLASSIC DOO-WOP, TO THE EVERLY BROTHER'S 'BYE BYE LOVE'...FOR SOMEONE JUST GETTING INTO THE OLDIES I SAY GET IT, IT IS WORTH IT; IF YOU HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO OLIDES AS LONG AS I HAVE, (OVER 35 YEARS), IT MAY NOT BE YOUR CUP OF TEA...IF YOUR REALLY INTO THE OLDIES, I WOULD GO WITH EITHER THE OLDIES BUT GOODIES COLLECTION FROM TIME-LIFE(AVAILABLE HERE), OR THE AMERICAN GRAFFITI SDTK...OVERALL A GOOD COLLECTION OF HITS...ROCK ON CATS!
