Leo Fender's contribution to the sound of modern music is immeasurable. The pop music explosion of the 1950s and 60s would not have happened without the electric guitar and, perhaps more importantly, the electric bass.
In true Ace Records style, this CD comes with a splendid booklet with enough reading material to keep any normal collector more than happy and the music featured is a surprisingly varied collection of some amazing music from the best in the business over the 60s and 70s.
Featuring music from Otis Reading, The Beach Boys, The Velvet Underground and The Yardbirds amongst others.
