As we have already learned (check out UK Instros Vol.1, RHGB 21), the Golden Age for British Beat Instrumentals occurred between the late 50s and the early 60s, peaking in 1961 & 62, following the arrival of The Shadows as a chart-topping phenomenon in their own right. This second set of predominantly twangy and/or keyboards-driven toons concentrates largely on 1962, with just a couple of handsfull of goodies left over from 1960/61 which were omitted from Vol.1 due to lack of space.
