Our Take

The American Bandstand Top 100 from 5th August 1957 is a nostalgic trip down memory lane, filled with bops and flops that will have you twisting and shouting all night long. This compilation of tracks from various artists is a mixed bag, with some true gems and some forgettable duds.

The album kicks off with a bang with Elvis Presley's "All Shook Up", a classic tune that still gets the hips shaking to this day. Followed by The Everly Brothers' "Wake Up Little Susie", a catchy number that will have you humming along in no time. The hits keep on coming with Little Richard's "Keep A Knockin'", a rock and roll anthem that's impossible not to dance to.

But not all is sunshine and rainbows on this album. Tracks like Jimmie Rodgers' "Honeycomb" and The Diamonds' "Little Darlin'" fall flat, with lacklustre vocals and uninspired instrumentals that leave much to be desired.

Overall, the American Bandstand Top 100 from 5th August 1957 is a fun listen for fans of 50s music, with some standout tracks that showcase the best of the era. So grab your poodle skirts and leather jackets, and let this album transport you back to a time of sock hops and soda shops. Just be prepared to skip over a few tracks along the way. Verdict: 6.8/10.
