First of all, it's worth it for the packaging alone!! It comes in a 7" X 7" sleeve, just like a 45 RPM E.P. (but YES, it's a CD!) Everything - the cover and the gatefold sleeve, and booklet, and poster, and lobby cards are extremely colorful!! I'm not even a big Cliff fan (more of a Shadows fan) The best tracks are Cliff's Summer Holiday, Bachelor Boy, A Swingin' Affair, and the gorgeous Next Time; also The Shadows' Les Girls and Foot Tapper. The bonus tracks are all very worthwhile, and
I've just ordered the DVD! Can hardly wait to see it! Grab this GREAT 40th Anniversary Limited Edition Soundtrack of "Summer Holiday" while you still can (hey, it's a bargain on Amazon Marketplace!)...then check out the film - it's supposed to be a great little pop music film!! Cliff and The Shadows at their greatest!!!
