Description: | Long before he evolved into Britain??s most successful record producer, in the mid-1960s, MICKIE MOST was a wannabe Brit Pop star.
However, after failing to make it in the UK he went to Johannesburg, where he instead became South Africa??s first R&R star.
Between 1959 and 1962 he recorded a dozen or so singles, a couple of EPs and a trio of LPs, which were all huge sellers.
Virtually everything he and his backing group The Playboys recorded was a cover of a US or UK R&R hit, all of which was self-produced.
This compilation presents a 36-track snapshot of Mickie??s South African adventures, including his local hit versions of ??Johnny B Goode??, ??Think It Over??, ????D? In Love??, ??That??s What You Do To Me?? and ??Sweet Little Sixteen??.
A legendary body of work, this material has hitherto been impossible to find in the UK. - THE JO'BURG YEARSLong before he evolved into Britain's most successful record producer, in the mid-1960s, Mickie Most was a wannabe Brit Pop star.
