The fourth volume in Eric Records' series of Hard to Find 45's on CD focuses on the late '50s and includes 20 of the rarer songs to hit the Top 40 during those years. Though several of these songs are already available elsewhere on CD (Kay Starr's "Rock and Roll Waltz" and Marty Robbins' "White Sport Coat and a Pink Carnation" foremost among them), there are plenty of long-lost songs to discover, like "Start Movin' (In My Direction)" by Sal Mineo, "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands" by Laurie London, "Three Stars" by Tommy Dee, "Guess Who" by Jesse Belvin, "It Was I" by Skip & Flip, and many others.

For anyone in their mid-teens in the mid-5Os, and into music, it had to be rock'n'roll - American rock'n roll. There was no British equivalent to the sound. In the UK, it was Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley, The Platters, Alan Freed, Radio Luxembourg, Voice Of America. If the right people get to know about this and hear the quality, this will sell and sell.
