VA - The Forgotten 45s 1957 - 1959 (Fantastic Voyage) @ 320

Repost

Not every record that's released can be a hit, but - hit or not - every record released is still a memory for someone. The Forgotten 45s, 1960-1962 features 90 such memories: records that deserved to he a UK hit but, for whatever reason, evaded the singles chart. Great songs! Great sound!
