If variety is the spice of life, then listening to American radio during the late 1950s and early part of the 1960s was certainly a spicy experience!

Here, on this 4CD set, is a delicious menu of dance sensations, virtuoso instrumentals, novelty hits, heartbreaking ballads together with some of the perkiest pop you could wish for.

So listen and enjoy, and you’ll know you’re in good company when you feel that throbbing American Heartbeat…
