A regular at Hamburg’s Star-Club (he performed there more than 250 times from ’62 to ’64), King Size Taylor was lumped into the Beat crowd (like the Beatles, Taylor was from Liverpool). But, in truth, Taylor was a straight-up rock ’n’ roller—one of England’s best. He and his Dominoes were Star-Club favorites, and Taylor remains revered at home in the UK, too. These 39 tracks include his best cuts for the Ariola label plus his rare Philips single "Somebody’s Always Trying." You get a large-format booklet with extensive notes and archival photos, plus a bonus photo postcard, along with "Bad Boy," "All Around the World," "Slippin’ and Slidin’," "Stupidity," "Short on Love," "Baby," "So Long," "Matchbox," "Guitar Boogie," "Sad and Blue," "Your True Love," the aforementioned single and more vintage rockers spread out across one CD and one 10" vinyl LP!
