UK collection. Peter Jay & The Jaywalkers were a popular  early '60s Instrumental combo who rode out the Beat boom with a string of excellent 45s: if they started out sounding like The Shadows, they ended up closer to Booker T. & The MG's. Having caught the tail-end of the instrumental boom with hit 45 'Can Can '62', they recorded a further eight singles for Decca and then Pye, many produced by the legendary Joe Meek. This is the first time that The Jaywalkers' recordings have officially been compiled onto CD, remastered from the original tapes. Both Peter Jay and guitarist 'Big Boy' Pete Miller are cooperating with this release, via a raft of anecdotes and rare photos/images. RPM.
