Description
JOHNNY&THEHURRICANES had a unique, unmistakable sound, built on Johnny Paris's sax and Paul Tesluk's Hammond organ, and their hit records stand up as a near faultless body of work. Featuring an eclectic mix of hits, misses, B-sides, and album tracks, this compilation of killer Johnny & The Hurricanes sides is drawn from EPs issued variously in the US, the UK, France, Holland, Sweden, West Germany and Denmark between 1959-62.
Their popularity was wholly international and they enjoyed particular success in the UK, where their records appeared on the London-American label.
Includes hits like 'Crossfire', 'Red River Rock', 'Reveille Rock', 'Beatnik Fly', 'Down Yonder', 'Rocking Goose', 'Ja-Da', 'Old Smokie', 'High Voltage', etc.
These sides are sequenced in the order they were originally released, rather than the order that they came out on their various EPs.
