Description by OLDIES.com:
Discover the rich musical heritage that laid the foundation for the British rock revolution with this exceptional 3-disc compilation. Before the Beatles took the world by storm with their revolutionary sound, the British pop scene was alive with a wave of home-grown instrumental music. While the golden age of instrumentals faded as quickly as it had emerged, its influence on British rock remained profound.
This meticulously curated collection features timeless tracks such as "Telstar," "F.B.I.," and "Sleepwalk," taking you on a nostalgic journey through the instrumental gems of British popular music. To top it off, the compilation culminates with "At The Sign Of The Swingin Cymbal" by Brian Fahey & his Orchestra, the original 1960 version of the iconic chart rundown tune for BBC Radio's "Pick Of The Pops."
If you've made it this far, rest assured that you're about to immerse yourself in 60 of the finest instrumental pieces that British music history has to offer. Embrace the melodies that paved the way for a musical revolution!
