Yes, we know that these days Sir Cliff is a weathered looking bronze old boy, better preserved than most if a little crinkly at the edges. Nonetheless, when he was a callow youth (just emerging from the chrysalis of Harry Webb to fly as Cliff Richard) he cut some of the best British rock ’n’ roll records of the late 1950s into the early ‘60s. He also recorded some very classy strollers and romantic ballads. According to your age and inclination in matters of romance you may consider the ballads mushy or yummy - his legion of young female fans certainly loved them. Our Volume 1 (SCCD1193) illustrated why Cliff Richard was the best-selling UK rockin’ pop star of the era; these follow-up 47 tracks are no less convincing. Don’t worry, this was long before Congratulations.
