Find Your Thrills at the Mall on the HillFor those of us wary of online shopping and dragging our heels on going (completely) digital in our music collections, FYE stores offer an easy way to hear the legacy of the late Fats Domino and other masters of the rock-and-roll 45. Some time ago I discovered the British (”One Day Music”) compilation series of U.S. oldies called “American Heartbeat.” Two-disc, 50-song collections for each year from 1955-62. I found each one on the shelf (eventually) for $10 per set. These are the editions include that include ”Ain’t That A Shame” and “Blueberry Hill,” respectively:Lesser-known Fat Man hits come in packages equally flush with the original recordings by the original artists, informative liner notes, and time-capsule-collage packaging. Fortunately, the Brits licensed all this nostalgia and sold it back to us Yanks for much less than we’d have have to shell out for the Time-Life collections advertised on TV. You could spend hours of time and hundreds of dollars to find just a few of these rare hits… - Nick -- source link
