Title: A gem by the originals!
Product review: I've had this CD a few months now, and it keeps sounding better and better. If you love Bill Haley's Decca and Essex classics - or just good original rock 'n'roll - it's highly recommended. The Original Comets are Marshall Lytle, Franny Beecher, Johnny Grande, Dick Richards and Joey D'Ambosio - all with impeccable 50s Haley pedigrees - augmented by UK vocalist Jacko Buddin on a few recreations, including Happy Baby and Dim Dim The Lights. Jacko does a fine job, especially on Happy Baby. But the highlights of the album are Marshall's vocals on Viagra Rock, We Ain't Dead Yet, Somewhere There's A Woman, Eat Your Heart Out Annie and You're The Greatest, along with Joey's magnificent, rasping Don't Push Your Luck and Buona Sera. The playing throughout is fresh, crisp and vital - no tired revivalism here. New, original and great! You'll love it.
