24 No.1's Of The 60's - Various Artists

Advantages: Some great Songs

Regardless of this I think it is an excellent album. When the album itself was delivered to me it arrived promptly and in good condition, I am just saying this because i had concerns it may have had been bodged, fortunately I was mistaken ....

The song, made with just a very low budget and cheap sound effects was a success and topped the charts in 1962. ***The Chicken Song*** Between 1984 and 1986, ITV produced a program... Read review
