Rock Instrumental Classics, Vols. 1-5 Review by Heather Phares
Rock
Instrumental Classics, Vols. 1-5 collects all the volumes of Rhino's
Rock Instrumental Classics series into a five-disc box set. Each volume
individually and as a set lives up to the title; Santo & Johnny's
"Sleepwalk," Bill Justis' "Raunchy," the Champs' "Tequila," and Link
Wray's "Rumble" are just a few of the standout tracks from the first
disc, which chronicles the rise of instrumental rock in the '50s. The
Ventures' "Walk, Don't Run," the Tornados' "Telstar," the T-Bones' "No
Matter What Shape (Your Stomach's In)," and Mason Williams' "Classical
Gas" are among the '60s instrumental hits from the second volume, while
Hot Butter's "Popcorn," Billy Preston's "Outa-Space," Van McCoy's "The
Hustle," and the Edgar Winter Group's "Frankenstein" are some of the
late-'60s and early-'70s classics featured on the third and fourth
discs. The final disc is dedicated to surf, the king of instrumental
rock genres, and features such twangy singles as the Belairs' "Mr.
Moto," Dick Dale's "Miserlou," the Crossfires' "Fiberglass Jungle," and
Jack Nitzsche's "The Lonely Surfer." Rock Instrumental Classics, Vols.
1-5 is a wonderfully comprehensive and entertaining retrospective of
instrumental rock's golden years, and a must for any fan of the genre.
