This  CD is Fantastic Value For Money at £9.99p Sound is Great even on the Unreleased.Sleevenotes are tops  so well worth the money an  sound investment. There are now 17 Compact Discs out of The Tornados.Apparently Trojan have now sold their Catalogue  to  another company....So we will will be having another load out  it is worse than Buddy Holly reissues..This one is all you need:  The Above  Track "Shakedown" was  originally scheduled for releasin in 1964-5  with a track called George Dick  odd  Never came out  Never located the George Dick. .unless it is a title  same as Shakedown referred to as the wrong title for Years.
