Some notes taken from the LP's rear cover. 

The songs on this LP were recorded on February 9th and 10th, 1959 at the E.M.I. recording 
studios in London. Several hundred of Cliff's fans were invited along to see this young star 
make his first LP and it was some party! With their great solo instrumentals The Drifters, 
Britains greatest ever rockin' group, contribute to make this a truly memorable disc.
