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,as well as a few other not so well known songs.

I have been looking for this group's cd for 38 years. I heard them when I was in Australia in 1971. Good solid rock and roll.

Only 2 tracks differ from the other two larger 'Cool' compilations. Schoolday's (a good studio Chuck berry cover), & Zoop Bop Gold Cadillac. Prior to the recent reformation, all we had was two studio albums, a live album and the D.C.E.P. Not a lot to make three compilations from.... the best material remains unreleased, except on the discontinued "Completly Cool". The entire 2nd side of 2nd album "Sex, Dope, Rock & Roll : Teenage Heaven", has never been released on commercial C.D. These tracks show Wilson's love of Frank Zappa & Doo-Wop, & in my opinion are among the best, more reminisent of precursor band "Son's of a Vegetal Mother" I'm only giving 3 stars not because the band aren't worth 5 (they are at least worth 4!), but because of the compilation concept.... We need the original albums in the original context!

Great to get this music back since losing my beloved long-playing record (and something to play it on!). Item delivered as promised. Cool, Daddy. Thanks!
