Our Take

V/A's 1954 British Hit Parade - The B Sides is a delightful romp through the lesser-known tracks of a bygone era. With a mix of rockabilly, doo-wop, and even some jazz influences, this compilation offers a nostalgic journey back to a time when music was simpler yet full of charm.

The B sides on this album may not have been chart-toppers, but they certainly do not disappoint. Tracks like "Love Bug Crawl" by Jimmy Edwards and "Why Baby Why" by Pat Boone showcase the raw talent and creativity of the artists of the '50s. These songs may have been overshadowed by their A side counterparts, but they truly shine on their own merit.

The production on this album is top-notch, with each track sounding crisp and clear. The instrumentation is superb, with twangy guitars, smooth saxophones, and catchy melodies that will have you tapping your toes in no time.

Overall, V/A's 1954 British Hit Parade - The B Sides is a must-listen for any music lover looking to expand their horizons and delve into the hidden gems of the past. So dust off your jukebox, pour yourself a cup of tea, and let the sounds of retro Britain transport you back in time. Cheers!
