Additional Details
As a major feat in itself being his 100th album release, "The Fabulous Rock ‘N’ Roll Songbook" finds Cliff Richard, one of the world’s first great rock ‘n’ rollers, come full circle and sing new heartfelt versions of classic American rock songs such as "Teddy Bear "(Elvis Presley), "Rave On" (Buddy Holly), "Johnny B. Goode" (Chuck Berry), "Rip It Up" (Little Richard), "Dream Lover" (Bobby Darin), "Wake Up Little Susi"e (Everly Brothers) and "Such A Night" (The Drifters).
For this super limited edition compact disc, Cliff's 100th album release also features a newer classic "One More Sunny Day" as well as very hip new takes on songs like Bryan Hyland’s "Sealed With A Kiss" and a wonderful rockabilly interpretation on the Ricky Nelson classic "Stood Up."
Cliff Richard said about recording the album: “It was like being back in the 50's with The Shadows in Studio 2 at Abbey Road - only it wasn't The Shadows, and it wasn't Studio 2 and it wasn't the 50's. I was in Nashville, Tennessee at the Blackbird Studio with five great Nashville musicians and we were recording....LIVE.”
