Johnny & The Hurricanes "Hurricane Force" Rare & Unissued 1959-1968 CD1 "Hurricane Force" Recorded Live 1962-1990

UK two CD collection. With 20 previously unreleased tracks plus numerous rarities many fans will not even know existed, this special Johnny & the Hurricanes compilation is easily the most exciting release in decades from one of rock 'n' roll's most loved band......The compilation includes rare releases from 1959, when Johnny & the Hurricanes were taking their very first steps into a recording studio to provide back-up for Freddie & The Parliaments and the Dream Girls; many elusive rarities from the 60's including two newly mixed high definition alternate takes; and 11 never-before-heard dynamic live performances. We've included tracks The Hurricanes recorded under the name of the Fascinators after they left Johnny Paris in 1961 and brought in another saxman to replace him. Both sides of guitarist Dave Yorko's little heard solo 45 from 1965 are included, as is Johnny & the Hurricanes' rare live German LP (in it's entirety) never released anywhere else in the world and has never been on CD. The package comes complete with a 12,000 word essay by Pipeline Magazine's editors Dave Burke and Alan Taylor which details the full history of the band right from it's early beginnings in 1956, through the entire 60's and up to Johnny's death in 2006.
