The music didn’t rely on volume, power-chords, or showmanship; its strength came from brilliant songs, crafted in the purest tradition of great rock & roll.

Features the only recordings of  MAKING TIME, FALL ON YOU, THE PRICE OF LOVE, WHO’S GONNA BREAK THE ICE?, JUMPIN’ IN THE NIGHT, and YOU CAN’T JUDGE A BOOK, plus the only live recordings of MAGIC TOUCH, OLDEST STORY IN THE WORLD, and HOBO
