Fantastic Voyage dips into rock n roll s hotwired legacy of automobile anthems and highway love serenades in the latest tarmac-scorching compilation put together with Wild Wax Show DJ Jailhouse John Alexander and Lucky Parker. Since the birth of rock n roll, the car has occupied a special place in teenage rampage and backseat romance, rock n roll music essential as both soundtrack pumping out of the radio or celebration of heaven on wheels. Over two discs, revving up ees and screeching brakes introduce 50 road-worthy classics, including lesser-heard gems rarely encountered on CD (if at all) by names such as the Storey Sisters, Don Pearly, Burt Keyes, Eddie Ringo, Dave Diddle Day, Rocky Davis plus a fleet of over-the-limit roadrunners such as Slick Slavin s Speed Crazy , Chuck Higgins Motor Head Baby and Mike Fern s Brake Jake (not forgetting Johnny Tyler s immortal Devil s Hot Rod ). This tyre-shredding set also shows how automobile association also brought out the beast in well-known protagonists such as Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Carl Perkins, Roy Brown, Eddie Cochran, Howlin Wolf, Merrill Moore, the Del-Vikings, Vince Taylor (in his Brand New Cadillac ), plus a brace of revved-up instrumentals like the Duals Stick Shift . Unexpectedly, this immaculately sprayed collection also boasts Gene Vincent warning about the perils of people driving like crazy on Why Don t People Learn How To Drive , after starting the set in his Pink Thunderbird . Cadillac Cuties And Hot Rod Heroes is that rare kind of compilation whose theme is simple but elevated by being beautifully pulled off: along with exhaustive liner notes, photos and memorabilia, it will motivate rock n roll and R&B fans, while also acting as a perfect cruising soundtrack (or antidote to somnambulant drive- radio shows). Top gear, in fact.
