The album and the bonus CD contain Johnny Kidd's recordings from 1959 to 1962 with a focus on his earliest work with the first Pirates group, recordings made with the classic ‘Mark 2’ Pirates Brian Gregg, Alan Caddy and drum legend Clem Cattini. The bonus CD includes cover versions of his songs but only the ones which were done on the European continent and the U.K. plus recordings of other bands where members of the Pirates were involved. 

Along with Billy Fury, Tommy Steele and Cliff Richard, Kidd is one of the most important and influential musicians of the pre-Beatles era in the UK. His Shakin' All Over is among the very greatest, worldwide popular rock anthems known to any music enthusiast and was covered by countless bands and artists in the 1960s. Bands like The Who and the Hollies refer to him and his backing band The Pirates as significant musical role models. The set includes, in addition to the record and CD, a Johnny Kidd promotional postcard.

10inch vinyl with 12-page booklet, 12 tracks, 33 tracks on the CD. Total playing time approx. 28 min. (LP), 77 min. (CD).
