The Platters Music Legends

The fifties and sixties were such a wonderful time to grow up and fall in love. It was the first time teenagers had their own music and their own love songs. Time Life is proud to offer The Teen Years, a new 10-CD, 150-song collection filled with teen idols, doo-wop groups, girl groups and more. It's the only rock 'n' roll collection devoted to the most romantic teen hits of the first (pre-Beatles) rock 'n' roll era.

In 1958 a Los Angeles DJ named Art Laboe coined the term “Oldies But Goodies.” Art had a great idea – why not put all the rock and roll records that teenagers really loved on one LP. That was the very first Oldies But Goodies album and it made rock and roll history. Now, Time Life offers the Ultimate Oldies But Goodies music collection. This oldies collection includes 8 Oldies But Goodies CDs plus two absolutely FREE CDs with 30 songs, totaling 10 CDs with 158 songs and a 32 page booklet.

Scottish whiskey-voiced vocalist Frankie Miller never made much of a splash in the States, despite, or perhaps because of, his fixation on American soul and R&B. Yanks have never been terribly appreciative of the music that originated in their homeland, which might have been a contributing factor to Miller's marginal popularity in the U.S. He was a fairly major star in the U.K., though, big enough for EMI to remaster, repackage, and reissue his catalog (at least for the titles on their Chrysalis imprint) into this generous four-disc box. They even include a few rare singles and, more importantly, the original mix of his second effort, High Life, along with the previously released one, expanding this set's total to eight albums from 1973 through 1980.

101: Rock 'n' Roll features five discs of biggest tracks from the legends of rock 'n' roll history. In this box-set you can find the hits by Buddy Holly, Fats Domino, Bo Diddley, Duane Eddy, Chuck Berry, Johnny Cash and many more.
