Title: excellent 50's rock and roll
Review: When I hear these Huey Smith tunes, I feel like I'm in the middle of a Mardi Gras parade struting down some New Orleans street. This music is vibrant and happy-sounding, heavy with piano rhythms and all written by Huey. All of his original charted hits on Ace records are here. The only loser in the bunch is the 1960 "Beatnik Blues" which reflects a changed style for the group as it fell out of popularity. Of historical note is the unreleased "Sea Cruise" recording by Huey which Ace rejected and turned into a major hit by another artist (Frankie Ford).
