Synopsis

Product Description
The Chas McDevitt group was undoubtedly the most professional of those to appear in the UK skiffle boom as anyone who saw them on the Ed Sullivan Show or 6.5 Special in 1956 will remember. If you felt the Oriole recordings sometimes failed to show the group at their best, then this CD is for you. Recorded between 1956 and 1959 this is skiffle with the rough edges. Featured vocalists are Chas McDevitt, Nancy Whiskey and Shirley Douglas. Included are some BBC Radio Saturday Club sessions from 1958. Karl Davison provides the detailed notes.(1956-1959 Recordings including their hit song Freight Train)
