A great party record from the beginning of the 70s in Australia--nostalgia lane for people who were in highschool or university then. Nothing highbrow, but good catchy tunes and unpretentious renditions of some classic rock'n'roll songs.

I like Daddy Cool and have done for years.
First song i heard was Eagle Rock.I heard some Daddy Cool songs and i now have alot of their stuff.Including their new DVD.
They recently reformed for the Tsunami benifit charity concert.
I wasnt there but it was good to see them play again.
This Cd has a whole stack of their best songs,however i could of changed a few around and added a few which are not here that i like.

If Lou Whitney's father was an Aussie, he would've fronted this dynamite group. They were out in the early 70's with a couple of releases and then re-appeared in 94 with some new material. Another disc (New Daddy Cool) was the result. This old stuff is magic. Like the Skeletons/Morells they combined 50's rock with some greasy roots rock that's best described as real rock & roll. Pick this one up.

Having enjoyed this album on vinyl many years ago I was thrilled when I realised it was available on cd. The price was extremely reasonable and it arrived within 3 days of placing the order. Most impressed on all accounts.
