Greatest Rock And Roll Concert, The - Various Artists

Catchy rock n roll with various styles

Advantages: Fun music, fun lyrics
Disadvantages: A bit rude

Rock N Roll Cleopatra is a compilation album of some of Wayne/Jayne County's finest tracks. The album tends to focus on Wayne County pre-sex change years and full conversion to Jayne. Wayne was an interesting chap who took part in the famous Stonewall Inn riots, was an influential figure on Daid Bowie's Diamond Dogs tour and album, was an integral part of the early punk rock scene and worked as a DJ at CBGB's. O Often seen as a bit of a novelty act, I think that Wayne County & The Electric Chairs were highly under-rated and this album churns out enjoyable track after track often in various styles.

Shake Rattle and Roll

Advantages: Loads of Hits from the Golden Era of Rock N Roll
Disadvantages: None

The early fifties marked the end of the austere post-war period, and the young people of the time were on the lookout for fun, excitement and sheer enjoyment.

It was called Rock and Roll.The years between 1954-1963 are generally regarded as the Golden Era of Rock and Roll.This 2-CD album features some of the hits of that period, and some of the best Rock and Roll artists…Ever!
