With the exception of Cliffs Move It, this was pure British 50's rock and roll. Although it was an oldie by the time I could appreciate music, 1970 onwards, it still sounds fresh 62 years on.

Great track which brings back memories. I still have the old 45rpm single in my collection.

another fantastic hit single from 1958 as it from Lord Rockingham's XI Called Hoots Mon as it had topped the UK singles chart

In a way this song was revolutionary and groundbreaking, since before 1959 an organ in a rock and roll song was almost unheard of, then after this comes out we see the more famous Happy Organ which really kicked off the "organ in rock music" craze.

What a great record. It always manages to lift my spirits whenever I hear it. I still have this both on the 45rpm and also 78rpm formats.
