Frank Virtue is a significant name when it comes to the history of the Philadelphia sound. The state of Pennsylvania with it's metropolis Philadelphia, affectionately known as Philly by Americans, was a true melting pot of musical virtuosos during the rock 'n' roll era. Of course, one immediately thinks of Bill Haley, Charlie Gracie and Chubby Checker. The name Frank Virtue fits in seamlessly here. Not only did his studio work until the 1970s provide a solid foundation for Northern Soul, but years earlier he had already caused a stir with various rock 'n' roll formations. This is impressively demonstrated here on 33 tracks. Starting in the early 1950s, when Virtue was bassist with the Esquire Boys, up to instrumental recordings of the 1960s, this CD deals with the career of Frank Virtue in chronological order. Frank Virtue and The Virtues are still associated with their only top 10 hit, 'Guitar Boogie Shuffle' from 1959. In addition to this rock 'n' roll classic, we have included two more 'Guitar Boogie' recordings: an early version with the Esquire Boys (1953) and the 'Guitar Boogie Twist' (1960)."Frank Virtue And The Virtues - Rock (CD)" is a remarkable collection that captures the energetic spirit of early American rock and roll. Frank Virtue & The Virtues, best known for their 1958 hit "Guitar Boogie Shuffle," were pioneers in blending instrumental rock with rhythm and blues influences. This CD brings together some of their most influential tracks, showcasing virtuosic guitar work and infectious rhythms that defined an era. Bear Family, the renowned German label behind this release, is celebrated worldwide for its dedication to high-quality reissues and comprehensive box sets that preserve music history with meticulous attention to detail. | | | No. of tracks: |
