Description
On Bob Stanley''s label, following up the acclaimed SOHO CONTINENTAL, here is a collection of coffee bar sounds from 50s and 60s London, the soundtrack to the birth of rock''n''roll, Gaggia machines, capuccinos, jukeboxes blasting out UK born sounds for boys in leather and beehived girls.
Long lost 45's on classic labels like Top Rank and Oriole, with tales of ton-up boys causing chaos (Carve Up, Ambush, Teenage Delinquent) to more sedate tales of going ''Hot Chocolate Crazy'.
Praise for Soho Continental:
"Croydon Municipal have constructed a marvellously evocative sound map of the area and the times... if you can lose yourself to these
intoxicating sounds, perhaps you can re-discover what excitement in music really is".
Louder Than War - "A swingin' safari of exotic sounds harkening back to a more eclectic Soho scene". -
