McDEVITT,Chas Skiffle Group - RCCD 3007

(1956-1959 Recordings) The McDevitt group was undoubtedly the most professional of those to appear in the skiffle boom. If you felt the Oriole recordings sometimes failed to show the group at their best, then this CD is for you. Recorded between 1956 and 1959 this is skiffle with the rough edges. Also included are some BBC Saturday Club sessions from 1958. Karl Davison provides the detailed notes.
