JOHNNY KIDD & THE PIRATES -1998 Compilation

JOHHNY KIDD was born Frederick Albert Heath in Willesdon,London on 23 November 1935,died 31, on October 1966 on a car crash accident.

Johhny Kidd & the Pirates played a propulsive mix of 50's rockand R&B.

They came along before Beatles but later were overtaken by the rise of Merseybeat.The Pirates continued without Kidd for years and they eventually become the grand old men of UK pub rock.

The single that remains a landmark,not just on British pop,but also in the development of rock itself was "Shakin' All Over" 1960.
